<HTML>Hi Ricky and friends,
Please view the video again carefully looking for DC damage. A snorkel ripped away is by no means conclusive reason for the boat\'s loss. The air duct was valved at the point of entry into the engine room underneath the weatherdeck (quite some distance from the snorkel itself). A quick reaction by E/R personel would have closed that valve with hardly a barrel of water in the boat. Not uncommon. Good luck and tks being careful. RB</HTML>
