According to what I have read... they all DID have lifevests on...

and they were all holding onto the boat until 2am this morning when somehow three were seperated (I'm sure they didnt swim towards shore - they were 30 miles out...)


I really hope they are found soon!!!

That is a very small boat for the gulf.
And leaving with the weather station reporting
winds that high...

Hope they find the rest of them.
Kinda weird how they give their sizes
and weights. The ocean does not care,
this is not a football game.
