Sounds like someone was there to witness it all. Should been throwing something to em
Shouldn’t speculate. But Pretty rare that 3 seemingly able bodied men would all drown. I wonder how much alcohol was involved.

Yeah... there would have to be someone else nearby that saw this to tell this story. Otherwise, it's complete speculation.

Perhaps they felt they weren't strong enough swimmers and so they needed two people to go, but still, why no PFD, why no throw float, why no using the engine to get closer to the distressed person?

Heartbreaking, whatever happened.

Nah, I wasn't. You should keep your throwable ready to throw with a line attached. Trying to wrangle a panicked swimmer is a great way to get you both drowned, and that's usually what happened in these multiple fatality incidents when it isn't a boat wreck.

There are more drunk boaters than sober ones around there on the weekends.
