I read elsewhere where some blood was found on the boat. I
can only speculate that he shot himself while leaning over a
rail with the anchor hanging ?

Merrill, 72, was found with a small anchor tied around
one
or both ankles and what investigators believe was a
shotgun
wound to the head,

WTF............Did he pull the trigger underwater????

Something sounds fishy.
