A not attended Sea Ray sport cruiser of eight meters in length sunk as it was swing moored in Burlington, Vermont on Monday 25 August. The story was shared by Red Cap Marine and Salvage Facebook page, who with assistance by Burlington Harbour Launch and Tow salvaged the boat. The not attended Sea Ray sank not because of wind and waves, but from a slow leak from the bellows or thru-hull, which made the bilge pumps run until the batteries died, with the boat slowly sinking.
The Sea Ray in this sinking is a Sea Ray 260 Overnighter as produced from 1989 to 1991. The 260 Overnighter was a replacement to the 268 Weekender, and was replaced by the 240 Overnighter.
