COUPLE WHO LOST EVERYTHING IN SUNK BOAT READY TO TRY AGAIN

Remember three weeks ago that Colorado couple who sold everything, bought a sailboat, took off for the Caribbean and then sank the sailboat, losing everything they owned? Well, Tanner Broadwell, 26, and Nikki Walsh, 24, are trying again. Since their story went viral, the couple has raised thousands of dollars in donations, taken ownership of an essentially free sailboat – one of several they were offered – and are ready to set sail again. Broadwell expects to be living aboard the vessel and working on it by next week, and en route to Key West not long after that. The first boat, which has been sitting in the water in a channel called John’s Pass, was sold to a salvage company. In addition, the couple heard from a publisher interested in buying the rights to their story.
* So, they’re making a “Jackass 4” then.
* Don’t buy the rights to their story yet – I have a funny feeling there’s going to be more happening to these two.
* Go ahead, ignore the Universe when it sends you a warning. See how that works out for you.
* They’ve got nothing left to lose. Literally.
* Maybe this time, they should use a submarine.
* Have they tried getting a sponsorship from an insurance company?
* “At Farmers, we know a thing or two because we’ve seen a thing or two. Like these nitwits with the sailboat!”
