Very sad news.

Thanks, Dave. I had seen the news reports on CBS and I believe NBC that evening, but as of yesterday we weren't very sure what had actually happened. At first I thought he might have been spearfishing and gotten his line tangled since the reports we heard were that he was tangled up in kelp and drowned. Capt. Bob thought it might be shallow water blackout.

Sorry to hear of this. My condolences to his family and friends.
