The only 92 foot boat I can think of is Pajaro Jai
which means enchanted bird. They were in the area recently. That is a 90 ton ketch. Not exactly a nimble vessel. http://www.pajarojai.org/yacht.htm I'd guess they would have had a bigger crew. Can anyone confirm the name of the vessel? Bart Charlie Morgan wrote: A 92 foot sailboat collided with a large coal transporter at about 4 am off of Port Jefferson this morning. Just like the crash a couple of years ago when the crew of a sailboat was thrown overboard when hit by a large Motoryacht in fog. The captain of that sailboat died. The three people on the sailboat this time were all thrown overboard, too. One was uninjured, one was injured slightly and the third was pulled from the water unconsious. Once again, I'll recommend that PFD's and tethers are a REALLY good idea anytime you are in poor visibility conditions, even if it seems as if conditions are otherwise benign. CWM |
