Re: Boat Capsizes off Sandy Hook
Hmmm - I guess the boat was on anchor and when the rope got caught in the prop, it tightened up to the anchor on the bottom and it brought the boat down enough to swamp it??

Re: Boat Capsizes off Sandy Hook
A lot of us know Romer Shoal...that is all, if you need more info... Don't anchor there till you know it
