AND ignoring repeated warnings from another vessel that they were headed

It is just heart-breaking to see a boat as nice as a Niagara
35 end up like that. Hinterhoeller made great boats and it's just a
damn shame to see one lost in such a pointless fashion.

What bothered me was, they didn't seem very broken up about it
either...their report had a distinct tone of "oh well, that's the end of
that dream...time to figure out what we'll do next." I've been more
upset over a minor gelcoat scratch than they seem to be over losing
their boat.
