    To all,

    It appears from news reports that they were attracted to a large
    mansion on the shore, on a hill.

    Those on the far side would not have been able to see it as there was a
    hardtop.

    It has been suggested that to see, the passengers had to go to one side.

    side
    and whether they had been seated on fixed benches or chairs as alleged.

    | Jeff,

    | Your analysis of this particular accident is exactly in line with my
    | thinking.
    |
    | Unfortunately this type is incident is exactly the type of thing that
    will
    | lead to a rebirth of the idea of forcing everyone on boats to wear
    life
    | jackets 100% of the time, maybe on tour boats of this type that idea
    is
    not
    | such a bad one but on everyday recreational boats it would be quite a
    | nuisance.
