3 boating fatalities around Catalina Island in last 2 weeks

Hey Steve be careful out there. 2 deaths from a late night collision and one fatality from prop injury to snorkeler in mooring field. As all of us have seen there is alot of luck that watches over many dangerous actions on the water that have no bad consequences. Well that was not the case on busy Catalina recently. My condolences to the greeving families and for my part I will continue to be as safe I can reasonably be, but mainly I will not become that grumpy old guy that used to yell at us kids when we played ball on the street. Mostly the lord watches over fools and drunks. Tom Evans SV Tappan Zee San Diego
