This was not Jim's boat, but I'm pretty sure it's the race Sly McFly is in this weekend.

Any indication of visibility conditions (ie fog, rain, haze)? My wife saw the news on her news service and they said a CG copter found two dead and a civilian vessel found the third fatality.

Jim posted this link on FB just a short while ago. At least we know he's ok, or we can infer so from his post.

This is largely a rehash of the first post.

Some eyewitness accounts of the rescue, and reports from VHF communications according to local boaters.
