This is really weird that nobody knows who swam to shore for certain. love MaggieAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02965466045143183880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826051055014640376.post-76410906523908118242009-06-07T13:17:15.611-07:002009-06-07T13:17:15.611-07:00I saw Kelly Friday night.

Could this be the brother/sister of Kelly who posted under the Herald story? It's worth checking out. It's not a very common name.

Who swam ...Testimony from the swimmers is crucial.<br /><br />Who swam ashore where is extremely important. If whoever stayed with the boat didn't get out at Post Point and were washed over the shoal, then the Nooksack delta is the place to look. There are places there that would be very difficult to get out of. If whoever stayed with the boat did get out at Post Point and everyone else swam to Clarkes Point, then the Nooksack delta isn't an important target and the coast south of the shoal is the place to look, or possibly the east coast of Portage Island. <br /><br />That's a tricky bit of coast there. I'm guessing they were reaching hard off the island on a port tack and when they got into the lee of the cliffs, a gust curled over the land and slammed their sails to starboard. Everyone would have had their weight on the starboard rail to keep the boat upright, but with the sails suddenly rolling the boat that direction, it's easy to see how it could have knocked them down. <br /><br />It's counter-intuitive, but if you are ever in a similar situation, head out from shore and steer well out to the Post Point buoy. That will keep you out of flukey winds and out of dangerous waves climbng the shoal.<br /><br />Wishing for the best. The swimmers hold the key.Tiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06034851474589857864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826051055014640376.post-6854858029368112722009-06-07T00:29:51.658-07:002009-06-07T00:29:51.658-07:00http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=115436&i...http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=115436&id=774410694&l=b8ba5fb3b9 try this link if the one above doesn't work.krista kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13078196360645804979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1826051055014640376.post-5669551320595543872009-06-07T00:29:05.607-07:002009-06-07T00:29:05.607-07:00Also today Gunther's family as well as some fr...Also today Gunther's family as well as some friends including Pieter, Nora, and I opened the van. Rosa (Gunther's mom) took some keepsakes and the van was towed to Pieters home and will remain there til the family decides what to do with it.
