Hi Tamzin, thanks for this article. Just wondering, "winds of eight miles per hour (13 km/h)" is very light. I think where ref 16 Sandusky Register has "The temperature and wind eight miles out were enough" refers to distance ie "search area a line about eight miles offshore". 8 mph is roughly 7 knots or 13 km which, according to Beaufort scale#Modern scale, is a "Gentle breeze". From boaters' descriptions it was much stronger? JennyOz ( talk) 11:58, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

On August 27, 1967, sixteen skydivers drowned in Lake Erie...Currently, you have to read the whole first paragraph to know that the disaster was drowning.
