There are 2 crew members missing.

I am sure the short crew was depending on power for propulsion and pumps
and when it failed.

What was the normal crew on the Bounty in it's day  Over 200 I would
guess and no power.

Technology is only good while it works.

Was aboard herin St. Pete long ago. Amazed so many could be aboard and
yet wondered as how even that many could manually handle the hardware.

Hope they find the 2 that are missing

FOX NEWS just interviewed the USCG rescue pilot. The boat had a steering
failure and was taking in water.

I wonder if that crew or management team never heard of having a sea anchor.

Yeah, but have you seen the video of the Coasties in action? Those guys are
getting better every time I see them. Makes me proud.
