Yes I happened to hear earlier this evening some coms about recovery situation now on DNR 151.2050 Coms to Station Curtis Bay.
Curtis Bay replied your coms are weak and barely readable.
Probably Susquehanna River area.

Susquehanna River on the southern end of Garrett Island. Between the Island and the Amtrak train tracks, but closer to Garrett Island.
Small boat overturned. Two persons recovered on top of the water, third one missing.
We found the third about 40 minutes later.
Units from Harford County Fire, Harford County Sheriff, Cecil County, MD DNR, and Baltimore County (Middle River) on the scene.
First team of 2 divers from Susquehanna Hose Co. Dive Team made the recovery, a second team was also searching. Other teams were getting ready to enter water.

Good Spring Striper fishing area just West/Northwest of Susquehanna flats.
Possibly Turkey Point/Port Deposit area boaters maybe.
Has been a bad full moon summer weekend for fatal auto accidents/plane crashes and now boating etc..
