Hey all CT sailors, Any idea what happened on that 24' sailboat that lost the skipper while two slept below yesterday afternoon? Quite a breezy evening. Probably a sad story to be sure. Eric

Eric, we can only speculate because there are
apparently no witnesses and the man lost overboard is probably dead. The Coast Guard has given up their search on the basis of size, age and weight expect that he is dead, else would have been found. Always a sad situation.

In most cases like this the crew member was
taking a piss over the side and fell in. Ross you should know that with all your experience?

Coast Guard reports
CG reports show that a in a very high percentage of man-overboard recovery the victim has their pants zipper down. Waffle... stop picking on Ross.
