Default 2 missing in Potomac river

Another sad report. Rescue officials rescued one individual and are searching for 2 others in the Potomac river in the DC area. A 17 ft boat was found running in circles and it finally went aground on the Md side. No report yet from the known survivor of what happened.

Regretfully, the two missing fisherman were recovered by dive teams. The 3 were all in their 40s and fished together whenever they could. It sounds as if they were experienced, at least in that particular part of the river. Still no word from the survivor (publicly) on what may have happened. Granpa
