Bounty a Victim of Hurrican Sandy, two People missing

[joyful_molly]

It’s with great sadness that we’ve learned of the sinking of the Bounty off the coast of North Carolina, making her a victim of Hurricane Sandy. Fourteen people were rescued by the Coast Guard; two, Capt. Walbridge and Claudene Christian, are unfortunately still reported missing.

Bounty was a replica of the famous original HMS Bounty built in

This is so very very sad.

I'm still heartsick over the news, especially Claudene Christian. And, after this much time, things don't look very good for the captain. They're saying the water is 77 degrees, so that's something, at least... but it's a LONG time to stay afloat.
