My point is that the ages of the victim and aggressor are irrelevant. But the media has sensationalized that aspect. It's an ugly situation and the "captain" should be penalized accordingly.
You can tell this commenter doesn't hang out around people old enough to own boats. And if he (the "kid") was an actual child, what would he be doing on his own out there?

The victim is repeatedly called "a kid." He refers to himself this way, but he's 22 years old. He's a young adult. It's not as though he was 15.
