Comments:
It appears that the boat was rolled over, but there is nothing to 
confirm this. The storm was only reported to be 40 knots with 25 foot 
waves. It is the beginning of Summer in the Southern Hemisphere.

There is another similar storm due in the area about Sunday night. As 
more info comes in we should have some opportunity to learn some lessons 
from this accident.
