2 People die in boat capsize

[hostage]

Found this article on CNN. Was a little concerning since my sister's b/f went sailing with some friends in San Diego this weekend. Luckily this wasn't them:

I wonder if the boat had a swing keel and they tried to come about.

Had one killed here on Ivie last weekend. 4th boat wreck in 3 years caused by people running by GPS at night. When a lake is at 30% capacity the navionics chip still shows it at capicity, thier are nots of rocks out there!

This.

There were 2 adults and something like 14 special-ed kids on the sailboat, most not wearing PFD's. Dunno where they got nine in the story, local news had pics taken before the accident.

Other boaters had reported them two days and the day before, but nothing was done.
