MacGregor Sailing Accident - Safety Reminder

[Maraquita]

Be Free-- I've never really timed the filling. I launch the boat, tie it to the public dock (or a local rock if I'm in the boonies) and go park the truck. It is full when I get back, so maybe ten minutes or less. Emptying it is a pain, however. I open it before I put it on the trailer and it will still be dripping when the boat is ready for the road. Here in Colorado we have an invasive species inspection program, and because the valve is not exactly at the bottom of the tank, when I move the boat to the inspection station after taking it down another large puddle always forms and I usually have to "discuss" with the inspector whether he will give me a seal or not.

Hi All!

Has anyone come across any official accident investigation report?

I’ve been looking but haven’t found anything as yet….. Wondering if there are any members closer to the incident area who may have seen something in a local paper?

Best Regards
