More consideration of the accident off Clearwater

OK, think about it a little more. These guys are not likely to have
fished until the waves built to 14' or even 6' and 40 miles off
Clearwater the water is deep enough that the waves prob were not
breaking and the survivor said they swamped when they hauled the
anchor. I would guess that it started to get rough, they hauled the
anchor and swamped and then it got really rough.
Why did they swamp? Anchored from the bow in a 21' boat, you'd think
the bow would rise with a wave.
Not necessarily.
