On October 8, 2001, the 120-foot luxury live-aboard dive yachts "Wave Dancer" and "Aggressor III, " both carrying members of the Richmond Dive Club, were secured to a concrete dock in southern Belize when Hurricane Iris struck. The last boat to slip into the harbor for safety, the "Wave Dancer, " stuck out halfway into the channel, unable to find more room at the crowded dock. The category four hurricane, with winds of 140 mph and a storm surge of fourteen feet, ripped the "Wave Dancer" from its cleats, tossing it like a toy across the lagoon. When the storm subsided an hour later, 20 of the boat's 28 occupants were dead. The investigation into the tragedy -- the worst in the history of recreational diving -- revealed that the boat's owner and captain had ignored storm warnings and needlessly endangered the lives of their passengers and crew. In a vivid indictment of maritime irresponsibility, author Joe Burnworth -- a passenger on the "Aggressor III" -- dramatically recounts the events leading up to the "Wave Dancer's" capsizing, the rescue and recovery attempts, and the devastating aftermath.
