Beautiful weather, nice winds, no drama, nothing broke, nothing
stolen.

I forgot about what happened yesterday. Tied up in the slip, cleaning
up the boat, when I hear 3 different sirens go off. Fire trucks
entering the marina, I scan for a boat on fire. Just off our dock is a
sailboat with 5 police/rescue/vessel assist boats around it. Then they
rushed past with a body to the ambulance. Could not resuscitate.

First report was that he was hit by the boom and fell in. Later, the
water cop told me he was hit by the boom, but told his brother he was
ok, Then, later went swimming and drown.
Sad.

One hell of an exciting trip report, Scottie!

Did you take one loop around the bathtub or two?

Now, the big question;--- use the Boom rigged with a Topping Lift or a
Solid Vang?

The local news has been reporting it as a boating accident stating the guy was
hit with the boom.
