Looks like an overturned boat training accident.

With all the budget cuts to maritime safety one has to wonder what the next few years will bring.

Very Sad indeed. Another story with more information.

What is the rationalization for changing the name of the Coast Guard Aux. ? It had a long tradition.

Very sad to hear. We were fishing off Texada and were listening the whole thing. Just a terrible situation all around. Prayers go out to the families.
