Has anyone studied the water currents around the Sebastian Inlet during that time? I'm thinking if they were holding onto a cooler, it's possible the current could have taken them in a different direction than what the search areas covered. I know currents can really complicate search and rescue efforts, especially when the Coast Guard has a limited window of time. Are there any oceanography experts here who could shed some light on this? Maybe there's still hope of pinpointing a more accurate search area based on the data from that period. Would love to hear any thoughts or theories!

Just came across the details of Shaun and Jay Eckert's disappearance, and something that's been bothering me is the lack of a definitive timeline as to when their boat started taking on water. Michael's 911 call was at 6:00 p.m., but were there any signs or mentions of trouble before that? I'm curious if there were any attempts made by the brothers to call for help or troubleshoot before everything escalated. Given how suddenly emergencies can happen at sea, especially around the Sebastian Inlet with its tricky currents, it just raises more questions for me. Anyone have experience or info on how boaters typically handle these kinds of situations when far from shore? What would you do if you were in their shoes?
