9756: Ferry Sinking (fwd)

[Bob Corbett <corbetre@webster.edu>]

Need info:     I can find plenty of info on the ferry sinking off of La
Gonave in 1997, but none on an earlier ferry sinking.  In the late 80's or
early 90's another  ferry sunk between La Gonave and Montrouis.  Can anyone
provide or direct me to info on this disaster? I believe about 160 people
were lost. I need the date and the number of fatalities.  Thanks
