Life & Death on the Lake is a one hour special that—for the first time—reveals the truth about the worst accident on this historic New York lake in more than 125 years. It has been called one of the deadliest and most inexplicable pleasure boat accidents in recent history.
The full truth about what happened that sunny fall afternoon would not be revealed for almost 10 years. What at first seemed like an unfortunate accident reveals a twisted tale of engineering mishaps, insurance fraud, state negligence, a Congressional inquiry into the National Transportation and Safety Board and the tragic drowning suicide of Matthew Quirk—whose family owned the ship.
The story was dramatized in Steven Soderbergh’s “The Laundromat” on Netflix, starring Meryl Streep, Gary Oldman, Sharon Stone, and Antonio Banderas.
