No word on what caused the boat to capsize???


The usual suspects will blame it on
1. Stupidity
2. Alcohol
3. Ignorance


All without any evidence of such.


There is nothing in the story to indicate alcohol was a factor.

Stupidity? Ignorance? Â*Maybe extreme........but carelessness can be
inferred from the fact that they were out in a small boat in the North
Atlantic, during late November, and not a single one of them thought
to put on a PFD.


You know, everyone takes a risk once in awhile, and it doesn't make
them necessarily careless. Do you walk around all of the time with a
radioactive proof suit on in case of nuclear fallout? Do you wear
steel toed boots all of the time in case someone or yourself drops
something on your foot?
