RIP
Looks like he worked on one of those long range Palm Beach boats that do shark feedings in Bahamas? There are accidents pretty often on those trips, one of Abernathy's customers was eaten recently. Anyone have any info? |

Wolf, Abernathy lost a diver who was never found. I asked Jimmy about that incident recently and he said the guy had unbuckled his BC which was found. That indicates the guy may have had a medical or other problem that lead to some gear ditching. Tony
