I guess the captain went down with the ship- just not on the same day.
A tragedy.

I can't speculate on how much the loss of Larinda was a factor in his
suicide, but Larry did go on to other things after the sinking. He
purchased the former "Hawaian Chieftain" and renamed her "Spirit of
Larinda". My son sailed with him from San Diego, through the Panama,
and on to Jamaica last winter/spring.
