Two deceased recovered from sunken boat
A team recovered the bodies of two people who were on the 26-foot shrimping boat which sank in Possession Sound west of Harborview Park May 21 on opening day of shrimping season. An effort to raise the boat failed, and it sank further. Police located the boat May 22 as part of the recovery mission. Boat retrieval efforts led to discovering the bodies of a man in his 60s and a woman in her 40s. The boat was located 165 feet underwater and towed to a location less deep. One person, the boat owner’s son, remained unaccounted for as of June 1. A fourth person, a man in his 50s, was rescued by nearby boaters while it was sinking. KING-TV reported he was treated for hypothermia.
The Tribune, through seeing a family member’s social media post, is independently identifying the boat’s owner in his 60s as Jerry Jara, He lists on his Facebook page that he worked at Boeing as an inspector in the 777 program. Son Calder Jara, who has not been found, is an alumnus of Arlington High School.
An online fundraiser for their memorial is at www.gofundme.com/f/honoring-jara-and-calder-support-their-memorial
