Sharon Jacques said her family made a lot of good memories on its 1988 Cobia bowrider
Haley Morgan. And Jacques, husband Corey and their daughter Haley, the boat’s namesake, were having a beautiful day with friends on Damariscotta Lake in Jefferson July 9, 2017. Then he had a sudden, and fatal, cardiac event.
Maybe having an automated external defibrillator (AED) on board would have made a difference, or not, the Wiscasset woman said in a phone interview April 15. But boats do not tend to carry them, because AED’s cost a lot, she said.
