A member of the Kennedy family and her 8-year-old son have been identified Friday as the two boaters who are still missing after vanishing Thursday in Chesapeake Bay. David McKean told the Washington Post that he, his wife Maeve Kennedy Townsend McKean, and their child Gideon Joseph Kennedy McKean had gathered Thursday at her mom’s home in Shady Side, Maryland. Children there were kicking around a ball in the yard – but at one point it went into the water, and his wife and son “popped into a canoe to chase it down,” he said. “They just got farther out than they could handle and couldn’t get back in,” he added.

“Kennedys- can’t fly, drive, swim or boat.”
or ski.
Not sure whether it’s because there are so many members of the family or whether there’s some sort of dark cloud hanging over them that they seem to have more family tragedy than most.

If you are with a Kennedy, don’t go near water.

Kennedy Klan should avoid bodies of water whenever possible. Paddling a canoe two miles off shore is as mind boggling as driving an Oldsmobile off a short bridge.

Just watched them struggle and eventually capsize? Something is not right here.

If she had stayed at home (as the state ordered recently) instead of taking her kids to visit grandma, she and her kid would still be alive.

“And no one did anything?”
I’m sure they called for help. Unless a boat was available there to help them, what could they do?

Tell that to the mother & father of a kid who rode his bicycle to the store to get some bread or milk for mom, and was killed by a car. He’d still be alive too.

How do you get a high speed, highly maneuverable PT boat run over by a Japanese destroyer? Being a Kennedy is the answer.

I’d say it is a safe bet that the Old Man Joe Sr traded his and the entire family to be Souls to the devil in exchange for $$$$ and power/social status.
I’m guessing Old Joe failed to read ALL the fine print.

the exception being JFK on swimming and boating.Wrong! He could swim but wasn't qualified to skipper a garbage skow.
During a calm, clear tropical night, how could the commander of a high performance watercraft be surprised and run over by an enemy warship?

If you are a Kennedy....Do not go near water. They never bathe at home because they know they'll eventually wash ashore.

The curse strikes again. When my wife was young it struck every month.
