Melissa in the Morning: Boating Safety

The search is back on today for two men who remain missing after a deadly boat crash in the Connecticut River in Old Saybrook. One person died and six others were injured in the crash late Monday night. DEEP officials believe speed is a factor. But officials say time of day, lack of life vest use and knowledge of the area could have also played a role in this incident. We spoke in depth about boating safety in Connecticut with Lt. William Simpson who oversees the Bridgeport Police Marine Unit.
