This is sad news.I must disagree with the comments in some of the news stories though.I was out in all those area this weekend and I find the worst water as far as waves is from the Weirs to Marine Patrol.As far as I'm concerned its always that way to someone who's boat is 11 ft long.I find it relieving to get to the broads where the waves are generally in one direction formed mostly form the wind.I know I feel much safer getting out of that Weirs to Glendale stretch.There are so many boats coming from every direction that's its a little unerving.For Seaplane Pilot,when I went by Saturday,there were 4 Marine Patrol in a semi-circle off of Varney Point which appeared to be shoeing boaters from their circle.Understandable because their were recovery divers in the area.
