is that White Rocks?

Yes, that's what it looks like. The channel is about a mile wide
there, but we don't know where they were headed.


I like the guys comment about sailboats don't usually travel
at night because they need to be under sail to move.

We all know there's no wind at night. Except that day it was blowing
20+ knots, and even at night it was over 10 knots. Temps were around
55 during the day, dropping to the mid 40's overnight.

Not the best time for sailing, but probably they were expecting to be
in by sunset. The report said this "unfolded on the 6PM news" so it
sounds like they thought they'd be powering in by sunset but the
engine died.
