Tour Boat Sinks in British Columbia


4 Dead After Tour Boat Sinks off British Columbia

A tour boat carrying 27 people sunk on the coast of Vancouver Island in British Colombia. At least four people died. The Joint Rescue Co-ordinator Centre says that they are still conducting a search to make sure that they have found everybody. It was a whale watching vessel. The boat is named Leviathan II. The search coordinators have requested military helicopters to help search. 

I think that this is important because it was a tour boat, and a lot of people like to tour by the ocean. Especially people who have never seen the oceans, like Iowans. I think that we need to be more careful when we decide to tour, especially on water because you can't predict the water 100%. We all need to be prepared for situations like this.
