No word on what caused the boat to capsize???
The usual suspects will blame it on
1. Stupidity
2. Alcohol
3. Ignorance
All without any evidence of such.
There is nothing in the story to indicate alcohol was a factor.
Stupidity? Ignorance? Maybe extreme........but carelessness can be
inferred from the fact that they were out in a small boat in the North
Atlantic, during late November, and not a single one of them thought
to put on a PFD. The jackets were apparently all aboard, just as
*required* by the USCG...
