... but I have visited beaches several times in Florida, California, Mexico, South Carolina and New York.
When the authorities post warning signs about riptides, I believe them and I stay the fuck away out of the water. Maybe it's a little different when you're in a boat, I don't know. But when all I can rely on is the strength in my arms and legs to keep me alive, well ... I know not to take stupid chances.
This is such a tragic story and I don't mean to judge this couple. They risked their own lives as well as their children's.
