Went like this: Me: Holland point Marine, Howard speaking./ Caller: Mr Montjoy I'm with the Virginia Marine Police. Are you aware of a duck hunter drowning on Monday in Paquason?/ Me: I heard about it, don't have any details yet./ Caller: Mr. Montjoy, he was in one of your boats and I'd like to get some information about the boat.
It knocked the stops right out from under me. The investigation is still ongoing and I have not heard from the Coast Guard yet But according to the local paper there were two hunters in one of the sneakboats I built for the DU fundraiser a couple years ago. They had constructed a wooden blind on it complete with roof. There were apparently no life jackets and the boat capsized. Again this information is from the local news media.
I'll update this as more information becomes available but I promise you, this is not a call you want.
