Real sad

...that’s horrendous, it must have burnt through so quickly...:sad:...amazing that there are 5 survivors though...

25 dead

:(

...this is really horrific and sad...one body still left to find of those on board..five of the people were a family, celebrating a birthday.../..mother, father and three daughters...:sad:..

I wonder what thier names are, cause I'm a cynical old bastard.

Horrible horrible story. The fire must have taken alight so fast for them not to be able to grab life jackets.

...none have been formally identified yet so the names haven’t been published officially ...but some of the families who have posted online stating that family members were on board...

A marine biologist, 41-year-old Kristy Finstad, was leading the scuba trip, her family said. Her brother described her as "extremely strong-willed and very adventurous"

Physics teacher Scott Chan and his daughter Kendra were on board, according to the Fremont Unified School District

The Pacific Collegiate School in Santa Cruz several of its students and parents had been on the boat, without issuing names

The mother of Allie Kurtz, 25, told US media her daughter was among the dead. Cherie McDonough described her as a "go-getter" who loved diving

Arizona couple Patricia Beitzinger and Neal Baltz "went to heaven doing something they loved together" Waltz's father told ABC News


..the family of five were Michael Quitasol, his daughters Evan, Nicole and Angela Quitasol, and his wife, Fernisa Sison...

Majority were all sleeping and had no chance DNA now for I.D.
