How sad.
I never knew the storm was that bad. Shoulden't they carry a NOAA Weather Radio on board those things? So if they hear a warning/or even a short term forecast for thunderstorms possible, they can head back and wait until the storms over?
Makes me feel even more lucky that nothing happend while I was on a boat ride during a severe thunderstorm, in the inner harbor a couple of years ago.

GREAT point there about having a NOAA Weather Radio aboard a water craft, Cheesy!
