Add to it, there was apparently also a 17' vessel that capsized in the west delta block yesterday. We were picking up the CG Grand Isle station's chatter, but the responding vessel's communications were not coming through great.

We were 30 miles offshore and there was a family with 22 kids in a 21' bay boat at the rig. Never ceases to amaze me how careless some people can be. Sure, the seas weren't too bad, but all it takes is one wake from a crew boat to swamp a boat like that.

22 kids? You sure they weren't floating in from Cuba?
