NTSB Faults Whippoorwill Design In Deadly Capsize
The National Transportation Safety Board linked the Pomona Lake showboat Whippoorwill’s June 17 capsize near Topeka Kansas to inadequate stability design and water in hull tanks. Investigators noted winds from a waterspout could have capsized the vessel, and urged Coast Guard stability standards for state water operations. The board also cited failure to obtain a weather forecast as imprudent. A separate Mexico City earthquake report noted no serious damage or casualties as Pope John Paul II prepared to arrive.
