The search has been big news - a sailor lost. This twist is just sad.

BECAUSE ONE OF US HAD HAD ENOUGH

I can't imagine the force needed to overcome the pleasure to sail, It hurts to think of the desperation he faced to do such a thing.

My family has a lot of respect for those that consider the final option in situations where their personal suffering really does outweigh the sadness of those who love them. I hope it was well considered.
