Eight other people who were thrown into the water were
injured. The cause of the mishap was under investigation.
The office said Chao Chen, who was sailing with family
members, died a little more than two hours after the 26-foot
boat flipped, but officials did not list a cause of death.
The accident occurred near a buoy marking the way from a
protected inlet to the channel of the bay.
There were no indications of a collision with another boat.
Video footage appeared to show the boat had a retractable rud-
der, but it was not immediately clear if it was down at the time.

Obituary
Ralph E. Abeyta
Ralph E. Abeyta, born Dec. 29, 1926 in Taos, N.M., died
March 20, 2011 after living in Redwood City for four years.
Ralph was born to Manuel and Rose Abeyta and spent his
youth in New Mexico.
He has been married to wife Lupe (Mascarenas) for 64
years. They moved to California to live
in the early ’40s. He was a merchant
marine veteran and worked most of his
life in the electronics field. He was pre-
deceased by his parents and his brother,
Gilbert (Helen).
He is survived by his wife Lupe, his
brother Manuel Abeyta (Lucy) and his
two daughters Mary Ann (Gary
Youngdale) and Linda (John
Westerhouse). He loved spending time with his grandchil-
dren (Christi, Eric, Gina, Brian and Lisa). When his great
grandchildren (Nathan, Analiese, Austin, Shayla, Chase,
Blake and Francesca) came along, he loved going to their
sporting events, music concerts or just having them visit.
They were the highlight of his life.
The family’s gratitude goes to all the wonderful people at
Mission Hospice and especially to his caregiver, Meliame,
who helped comfort him in his illness. Respecting his wish-
es, a private service was held for the immediate family. A
memorial mass will be held in the near future for those who
wish to attend to celebrate and honor his life.
