I'm a trained Water Safety Instructor and former Lifeguard, no one in charge of others behaves the way this crew did, not with the weather report they're supposed to check before they take off from the dock with 31 people on board, not when the storm came up roaring along in the main channel the windiest and roughest part of the lake at risk of lightning and capsizing instead of immediately taking boat to the shore and getting these people of the boat onto land.
Captain lives, driver still to be located, interesting is all I got to say about THAT.
You want to blame a one year old child, other children, older people in their 70's, and other ages too, for their demise, that is your choice, Beezer dear. But that isn't going to fly. Just sayin' .... but go ahead, give it a go!
