And before that story gets out of hand - please note it was a 16 ft cat, i.e. something of the style of a hobie.

CEDAR KEY, Florida — The Coast Guard says three men had to be rescued from their capsized catamaran in the Gulf of Mexico off Florida.

According to the Coast Guard, a family member reported the men missing Sunday night. The men had left Cedar Key to sail a 16-foot fiberglass catamaran around Atsena Otie Key, about a mile off shore.
