Next time anchor.

Back when I taught boating classes I made a point to never swim from a non anchored inflatable since the wind can take one a lot faster than a person can swim. I never thought to mention current figuring most people would think that would be unwise.

He could have walked on shore to keep up with the boat?
Did he become fish food after dying ?

Had another unmanned boat found anchored up a couple of days ago. Found the body a couple of days later. Most can’t swim against the 4kt. Tidal current

Cant count the number of times people get caught up in rip currents and drown.

Fishing a tournament one year. Mist had told the women 6 times to keep her kids out of the rip right in front of her. Wasn’t 10 minutes later, there goes the kid being dragged out the trough right next to us. Kid would have drown had my fishing partner not stepped in and dragged the kid back to shore
