Third Column In Memory of Family and Friends Lost at Sea. Linda Self (Rodgers) My curiosity about what happened to Cindy led me to reach out to a website about Alaska Maritime Deaths. Tonight I received an email from Captain Warren Cook. He has a website called alaskashipwreck.com and has written a book as well. This is his reply and attachment(s). Cindy must have been quite a gal to get her own tug. Impressive by any standard. By the way, I graduated from Denton Senior High class of 1968 there in Texas. Ended up in Alaska in 1972 and stayed several decades. Am now retired in Florida and spend my time researching and passing on Alaska Shipwreck information. I will add Cynthia's name to the information in my books and website. All I had before you brought it to my attention was the name of the vessel lost. I will update my website at alaskashipwreck.com, my ALASKA SHIPWRECKS books and my web page at Alaska Fishermen RIP. Thank You for remembering; may she Rest in Peace ...Smooth Sailing.....Captain Warren Good 2 Bodies Recovered After Boat Sinks in Kachemak Bay SELDOVIA (AP) — A Seldovia woman and an unidentified man were killed when the woman’s boat went down in Kachemak Bay, authorities said Monday. The Coast Guard pulled the bodies from the bay Monday afternoon after wreckage was spotted over about a mile of water near Hesketh Island and Barbara Point. One of the bodies was identified as that of Cynthia Jon Stults, 40, a school cook and 10-year resident of “ Apparently the boat broke up for some reason and sank,” said Troopers Cpl. Dan Weatherly, who was in Sel dovia investigating the incident. He said the weather Monday was relatively calm, but there were reports that overnight the wind had been blowing hard and waves were crash ing on the rocks. Stults had bought the 38-foot, wood-hulled harbor tug called the Pe ter H. late this summer, Weatherly said, and apparently was converting it into a pleasure craft. She and her companion apparently were returning home to Seldovia from Homer, leaving sometime between 8:30 p.m Sunday and 8 a.m. Monday, when the Homer harbormaster report ed the boat was gone, the Coast Guard reported. When Stults did not show up at work Monday morning, a Coast Guard helicopter from Kodiak began searching for the vessel. The floating debris first was spotted from a small civilian plane. “ There were pieces everywhere,” said Coast Guard Petty Officer John Germain in Juneau. The helicopter and a Coast Guard boat investigated the debris, finding the woman’s body at about 1:30 p.m. and the man’s some three hours later. She was wearing a survival suit; he was not, authorities said.
