75 footer. My brother who built boats for Ocean Yatchs said It must have been an explosion for so few to survive.

“The Fire Department said 34 people died, but the U.S. Coast Guard, which first reported a rescue operation near Santa Cruz Island, has not confirmed any fatalities.”

That’s what I was wondering.
How do so many die so fast?

“We are going to need to confiscate all boats over 12 ft...”

Coast Guard reporting it was a fire. No mention of deaths. Rescued a group of crew and in process of rescuing other passengers.

FOX now reporting unknown number of fatalities. 5 rescued and others “escaped”. Escaped??

Labor day weekend party boat blows up at 1:00am local time or was it a refugee craft trying to reach land? Bit too far north for human smugglers.

Jeez. None of the above. See my post #9. I’m sitting on my boat in Ventura waiting to hear more.

Assault boats are unconstitutional...and “Beto” should forceably confiscate each and every one.

It’s the right thing to do.

Must drill down on the names and see the connections to Epstein or the Clintoons.
