The sea is a harsh mistress...but I've seen worse.
As a former mariner, I was baffled to hear how there could possibly be four sinkings in a lake, when (according to the Austin weather) there was no mention of high winds or storms today. I presume the shipwrecks were the result of collisions, wakes, excessive speed, drunk driving, or other Trump Texan Tomfoolery.
I wish I could have been there. It must have been a magnificent sight.
