Here is a picture of the captain with his everglades before the accident. The caption reads: "Bless you Mr. Cooper for helping boaters in the future be better prepared. Marquis Cooper (l) in happier times"

BREAKING NEWS:

Upon the Coast Guards search the only thing that was found was the Yellowfins gas tanks. Needless to say the Coast Guard was happy to find there was no rust to be found.

Thats a Plus....

Bottom line is that these guys were LUCKY, to have a boat see them go down as fast as they did.

I highly doubt the guy ran that boat aground in that picture. Most likely they were partying in the sand bar and didn't pay attention to the falling tide. By the time they realized they were stuck it was to late and had to wait until high tide.

You cant judge by that pic....

THey could have been fishing away from the boat, if they were fishing another part of the beach. Ad came back with the boat on the sand bar.
