The National Transportation Safety Board says a fishing boat that sank in New England, resulting in the loss of four fishermen, likely capsized because of poor drainage of seawater from the rear deck and hatches that weren’t watertight
DAVID SHARP and PATRICK WHITTLEPORTLAND, Maine — — A fishing vessel that sank in New England, resulting in the loss of all four fishermen, likely capsized because of poor drainage of seawater from the rear deck and hatches that weren’t watertight, investigators said.
"Don’t wait for a mandate from the Coast Guard," Homendy said in a written statement."If the Emmy Rose crew had access to these devices, perhaps some of them would still be with us today.” Hours later, early on Nov. 23, the vessel’s automated distress beacon signaled. The Emmy Rose disappeared without a radio distress call.
The Emmy Rose was more susceptible to capsize because of its design and modifications, the NTSB said. The vessel was originally built for shrimping in the Gulf of Mexico and was modified for trawling for fish in New England waters.
