Default boat collision, could this mean manslaughter charges?

http://www.miamiherald.com/news/miam...y/1137971.html

I know the article states that charges could be pending, but just from
what is gathered by the article, there's a lot that isn't known.

the victims were fishing way off shore at about midnight. Nothing is
said about proper nav. lights or at least lighting in general , or
night visability conditions..

At least the people that rammed them hailed for help and stayed around
to search.

but any way you look at it, , it still isn't good.
