Apparently they thought the primary purpose of having PFD aboard a small boat was to palacate the USCG in case of inspection. What a shame. Considering wives, kids, friends, coworkers, employers, employees, and family members there are maybe hundreds of people affected by each of these deaths, so it isn't entirely or solely a personal decision. We can only hope their possibly needless deaths will serve as instructional examples The water up there is so freakin cold this time of year, it is doubtful that a life jacket would have done more than prolong the inevitable in my opinion. The *real* issue is what were these guys thinking of, being off the NJ coast in November, in a 25 footer? There are plenty of 40s, 50s and 60s that get in trouble in the NJ inlets when things are rough. In a 25 kt nor'easter you can see the surf breaking in and near those inlets from 3 miles out. Been there, done that. The water temp in Chesapeake Bay already is under 50F, which means if you fall in and don't get out quickly, you're oyster bait. It dropped quickly the last few days here... buoy at harbour mouth says 36.5 F right now. Now that's cold! Not compared to the air temp. My outdoor thermometer says 15F with high winds and light snow. Took the dog out for a run this afternoon and didnt last long because of a mini snow squall and very high gusts of frigid air. Gotta dig out my ear muffs. |

Ten to 15 foot breaking waves are common off the Jersey coast this time of year. They can capsize a 25 footer in a heartbeat. As well as a 49' RV. If they can capsize a 65 ft commercial fishing boat in the middle of Barnegat Inlet, and they have, a low transom Parker would be easy prey. |

Boy... JohnH & Waylon sure act like the Bobsy twins. They are desperate to drag the more moderate posters into their foolishness. Maybe they need someone to hold their hands while they do their instigating, facilitating etc. Stupid puppy dog reply... |

That'd be an inprovement from what greets him in the mirror every morning! And yet another. I can't believe this guy has an adult child living at home. He responds like a teenager. |
