Yeah, there was several children on-board the popular tourist boat. :(
The storm reportedly hit suddenly and led to 5 foot waves, 80mph winds, and the water swelling to 40 feet. The duck boat capsized.
Correction to my previous post: the 17 deceased include four people who were previously missing. Divers recovered the four missing bodies this morning. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nati...805646002/
