That's nuts. A shame one of the women got killed. Wonder what kind of boat that is? 36' go fast CC? Concept? Looks kind of like a Midnight Express, but those are 39'.
Those guys in the USCG go the extra mile.. Part law enforment, part homeland sec.. Part search & resuce.. Its a lot of hats to wear.. My hats off to those guys... :) Jamie / Lakeside

I believe the Coastie's shot one bullet only, into the starboard powerhead....
plane overhead, armed Coastie's alongside, radio's everywhere, and they try and run... 2006 Darwin Award winner here......
