This is a Sad Thing

July 3, 2026

This is the trailer for a movie that came out several years ago, but I just found out about it. Old hands will recognize the boat - it is the famous SEEKER. From IMDB:

Four best friends from boarding school decide to attend a massive blow-out High School graduation party on Block Island. After missing the last ferry they decide to hire a fishing boat to take them on what should be a simple journey. What they get is the trip from hell, with a captain and his first mate that have no intention of taking the kids to Block Island, putting them into a fight to survive and to simply make it back to land ... any land.

The film DEAD SOUND is a horrible cheap exploitation flick that is not worth watching. The boat does not look in great shape either - it is gutted and filled with garbage. On the plus side, the boat was still in the water and running, which is better than rotting away on blocks.

Here's something else I found: Captain Steve Bielenda of the Wahoo holding the sign that was left on the Andrea Doria by the SEEKER. The video below explains ...
I doubt this kept the Wahoo divers out for very long.
In fact, looking at Gary Gentile's goody bag, I don't think it kept them out at all.

Environmental Groups

Environmental organizations are both good and bad. State and federal governments have large departments that oversee environmental issues such as water and air pollution. These agencies have staffs of scientists and experienced technical personnel to plan and implement environmental protection programs and monitor environmental quality, and they generally manage to get the job done on their own.

While it is good that private citizens take an interest in such matters as well, private environmental groups often do as much harm as good. What they may lack in technical and scientific proficiency, they often make up for with media savvy. A phone call to Eye Witness News and the mere utterance of any number of keywords ( such as simply POLLUTION ! ) will automatically get their opinions on the air and in print, whether they are right or wrong.
