General information.



This link to google shows the location of the accident. As can be seen,
the "fjord" is more like a lake. The actual path of the boat on the
fatal day is not known with full certainty.



Beginning from "Praestoe Havn" at bottom of the picture a course towards
north is reported. A sailing distance of 1700 meters is reported and a
distance of 500 meters from the shore towards the west is reported. The
capsize can be related to moored buoys so eventually precise information
about the swimming distances will be available.
