Something is just not right with this story. The Ethan Allen is a 40 ft tour boat capable of carrying 50 people. Another article talks about plastic seats that slid to one side when the boat rocked. The link given earlier quotes a former captain of the boat who stated that the boat would list to the left when fully loaded with passengers. I hope that the NTSB takes a long hard look at this accident and rules are changed if they need to be.
