I think there is more to this situation than a guy just falling out his yak.... I am thinking that there was a boat involved..... but then again that's just me thinking out loud

I agree with both MG and BassYakR. Stuff always seems to be at its worst when you least expect it. I dont wear a pfd even when I know I should. We can Monday morning quarterback this story forever. Dude is dead and that sucks. End result for him is the same no matter how much we debate it. There is and never will be a pefect solution to a live or die situation. It sucks no matter how you cut it.
