I don't know if anyone else has any more information on this.
I was fishing off of Stuart yesterday morning when I heard the Coast Guard stations from Miami & Jupiter in contact with a boat with a "Diver in distress". I never heard the radio broadcasts from the boat, so all I heard were the Coast Guard broadcasts.
From what I heard from the Coast Guard there were 3 divers as they kept asking if they had recovered the other 2 divers. The Coast Guard repeatedly confirmed that the diver was not breathing.
They then broadcast that there was a 25' MAKO with a blue bimini top with 6 people aboard. One of them was a diver in distress. The boat was coming in the Boynton Inlet, ad for all boats to stay clear. There was an ambulance waiting at the sheriffs sub station, and the Jupiter Coast Guard station dispatched a chopper in case the person needed to be airlifted. The news story this morning is pretty slim.
