DIVE BOAT CONCEPTION - Various Footage of the Layout of the Boat - RIP ALL THOSE LOST
September 02, 2019 by Sailing Triteia | Language: EN Play Time: 00:03:47 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
Hello Friends,
I awoke to the heartbreaking news of the tragedy onboard the Dive Boat Conception burning down to its waterline and sinking with over 30 people MISSING still.
We dove on this boat in January of 2018 and I shot a bunch of footage but never made an episode of the trip. I have put together what footage I have of the layout of the boat for any friends and family members or anyone really that wants to understand what happened or how this could have happened.
The below decks of this boat were packed floor to ceiling with bunks, stacked 3 high. I don’t have any footage of the two small stairwells that lead up into the cabin but I remember being shocked that there was no accessible hatch to the deck, that I knew about anyway.
I am not putting blame on the dive captain or the company who runs the boat because this boat was highly professional and checked out by the Coast Guard regularly so it was obviously up to code.
Disasters just happen sometimes, and there is no bigger disaster on a boat than a fire.
My heart goes out to the divers and the friends and families of all that were lost. I hope this footage helps you at least get your head around what it looked like on board and down below and understand how such a tragedy could happen.

My name is James and I have recently untied the lines for good and set off to start a slow circumnavigation of this big beautiful world. After 4+ years of refitting my 1965 Alberg 30 she is finally ready for some serious sailing. In 2021 I completed my first solo ocean crossing from Los Angeles to Hawaii traveling 2300 nm and will be heading south in the summer of 2022, bound for the South Pacific.
