Yea I saw that too. I am not sure I believe that line though. If it was an outrigger kayak the most common type is probably a hobie adventure island. I really can't imagine a hobie breaking . maybe it was a home built model???

I've been wearing my Mustang Auto-Inflating PFD 100% of the time, everytime since I bought it 9 month ago..... and that's in a boat!

Not wearing one in a Yak................ is stupidity!


Shit can go wrong way to quickly when your on the H2O.
I don't want to leave my wife & kids like that.

From what I read he abandoned his vessel at 4 PM when it began sinking and then started swimming. He was found outside oceanside harbor at 9 PM. He wouldn't of been out at night if his rig didn't sink. But some safety gear wouldn't of hurt.
