One local worker/liveaboard perished last night and the body was record in the lagoon today, along with his dinghy. And, also last night, another dinghy accident claimed a life in Great Harbour, BVI! While I realize that most here are land-based, those on dinghies at night should be aware of the dangers.

There's no news link to the incident in St. Martin, but here's a link to the one in the BVI: https://caribbean.loopnews.com/content/boating-accident-claims-one-life-bvi

Sorry to hear that, although I did not know the person at all. I have to say, years ago we took a dinghy ride at night in the lagoon (with the captain of a boat from St. Maarten) and it scared the cr*p out of me. Very dark out there.

Tim, don't think so. Not sure where I've seen him, but here and there - I recognized his picture. Very sad.
