Didn't someone here claim, not too long ago, that drowning
was a 'pleasant' way to go?

Why's that? Drowning isn't much fun. At least a gun is
fast, assuming you do
it right.

That some mighty big speculating Scotty.

My guess is someone offed him, dumped him, sailed by
shore, put the
boat on a open water tack and jumped ship.......but I'm
a speculating
too.

I speculate an experienced sailor would rather drown....
then blow his
head off.

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.
