The silence at the end says it all

[wcresponder]

people like IRISHWILDCHILDS really need to learn how to do the rescue job, stop bitching till you've done the job.

Why does he say (Break Break)?

PS_ the boats ususally dont go down that quick.. it happened VERY VERY fast... luck to get the call out and the rest of the crew was not sure it had.. we were dealing with the raft (which we lost) ... Rob died quickly after this and we could not ask if Coast guard was called... we sat out there wondering IF they were coming...

[picnic011]

THANK YOU strangers.... I was one of the crew on the Northern Belle...(the GIRL GREEN HORN) IT was 1.5 years ago and tonight I finally am able to watch this... Thank you for the kind words to Captain Rob etc. The coast guard was a site for sore eyes- at the time we were not sure that they had been alerted and we had lost the life raft ect. nearest boat was 18 hours behind us and there was a storm coming up- thanks for careing- Nicole Esau Crew

When shit hits the fan The coast guard gets to proper with radio transmissions, you can hear the fear in this guys voice, Just send a fuckin boat and stop asking so many questions

Can't be that hard, Look at 0.59.10 N 146.47 W and spot the Half sunk ship, I'm sure theres no more than one

@pamlico73

If he had been a bit smarter, and equipped his ship with Inmarsat-C, he'd be alive today.

Brave? Maybe. Smart? NO.

[Rich8951]

The reason this man is dead today is because he did not equip his ship with GMDSS systems.

With the right equipment, he could have pressed a button, got into the life raft with his mates, and have been alive today to talk about it. Now he is dead.

The radio communications were unsatisfactory. Coast Guard Kodiak was completely incompetent.

When the third station broke in (which he should not have done) and said "they have 4 persons on board" the Kodiak C.G. operator didn't notice.

[cats400]

The coordinates are 0.59.10 N 146.47 W

[rekosat]

he said 069.02 N ; 146.47 W ?
