SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Members of the close-knit Santa Barbara boating community gathered on Tuesday to construct a makeshift memorial to the 34 people believed to have perished when their dive boat caught fire and sank off the California coast.
“Almost everyone, because we are right on the water here, has been out on . We all have a personal connection with it,” said Judy Weisman, 72, as she visited the growing memorial of flowers, candles and pictures at the boat’s dock. Mourners who made their way to the dock wove flowers into a wooden fence and left behind dive flippers and sea shells in remembrance. One of the shells was inscribed with the name “Kristy.”
