Search underway for three missing people after boat sinks near Mukilteo

That area doesn't always look like that. I have spent a lot of time in the area. On the water so many things can go wrong and compound very quickly. I would bet that they didn't have lifejackets on. In my opinion that is what went wrong. I have lost two people due to drowning...if they wore a lifejacket I could call them tonight. We all make choices. Nobody gets on my boat without a pfd period. I don't want to live with watching someone I care about die. Water is unforgiving. Prayers to those left behind.

Just speculation, could his shrimping gear got hung up, and the winch pulled them down enough to take on water?
With a surviver they should have some idea of what happened?

Sad news, don’t under estimate how quickly things can change on water. Even on small lakes and ponds, it doesn’t take much to for the water to swallow.
