As the owner said in the CT today, boats can sink from innocuous things like prop shaft seals failing. Unfortunate for him – especially as how his first MV Pelican burnt a few years ago. And for the tourists who will miss out on a pleasant bruise on the lake.

Second boat of same owner to sink in similar circumstances in four years. I bet his insurer will be looking at this one closely!

Isn’t that police code for suicide?

The Pelican just couldn’t take it anymore?

Non-suspicious according to the folks at WIN news.
