My wife usually reads the News-Press, and she handed me the front section this morning. That photo was on the back page, and it's an ugly looking hole. I also heard a rumor that they abandoned it with the generators and engines still running.
The boat that sunk was a shrimp trawler. Probably just coincedence, but most people I've talked to haven't been too broken up about the loss of the shrimper. Bottom trawlers aren't real popular here in the land of "Those with too much money and too much free time for Activism."
