Well, at least he would have been upright for a while.  The seas looked 
moderate to me.  Maybe 3-footers, but not gnarly at all.  Apparently he 
went over in that stuff; getting upright is just the first step.  Staying 
upright would be his next battle.

His story would be illuminating, I suspect.  Hope we get it.
