from friends Dennis & Susan there in La Paz.

"The sad news is that Gunther was found inside his boat, Princess. His last transmission was in the very early morning during the height of the hurricane when he stated that he was adrift from his mooring ball and unable to deploy his anchor after being hit by another boat. His prop was fouled so he was not able to move his boat. He said that he was up to his knees in water inside the boat and was very tired from bailing. He was thinking of leaving Princess to try to swim to shore. Shelly has been in contact via telephone with Gunther’s son. It was just announced that the autopsy shows that Gunther died of a heart attack and not of drowning."
