Boat crash

I thought the tragic accident occurred across from the Post Office …. not in the line of sight of Bear Cam ……… which looks in the general direction of FL#4 & FL#61

Am I mistaken ?

They were on that spot for almost an hour. I thought they might have had divers in the water but it was hard to tell for sure

Captain Dunleavy told me the accident was right in from of my cabin. He wanted to know if I saved images from the BearCam. I told him I do not.

Reports have claimed the accident was just north of the mail dock. Once again, that is the area viewed on the BearCam.

If anyone is interested there are more views of the area available from my other cameras at www.bearfeed.com

According to the report, Hal's boat was found in 48' of water out in front of the red double boathouse on Pine Island, just north of FL4, which might explain why the MP was out that direction today. It must have been a fairly strong breeze from the south for his boat to drift that far before sinking.

The last time I saw Hal was 10 or so years ago when I went to his house on East Bear to pick up my parents who had attended his wedding that day...

It is all so very very sad and the world has lost two gentlemen that touched so many lives in such positive ways...

Be careful out there -PIG
