Introduction to Better Bay Alliance Interview
The video interview provided at the link below was a recent discussion is between the Better Bay Alliance Vice President, David Lussier, and Paula Tartaglino, the mother of a woman (Sandra) who perished while sailing in a regatta off Newport Rhode Island on August 11, 2019 when she collided with a powerboat.
The Better Bay Alliance was formed shortly after this accident by a group of concerned boaters with a broad background of boating experience. The purpose of the interview was to make the public more aware of the Better Bay Alliance origins, provide more public legacy information on Sandra Tartaglino, and provide more specifics on the accident to the public so people are aware of just how lethal a pleasurable day on the local waters can be.
