Srinivasrao Alaparthi, husband of a woman who tragically died in a parasailing accident in the Florida Keys last year is speaking out on the tragedy.
The Illinois man explained that the goal of the lawsuits he filed was to ensure that no other family goes through what his family is dealing with.
He said since his wife’s death, his family takes things “one day at a time”. And said his late wife was “an incredible person, full of life and love.”
The lawsuit names the boat captain Daniel Couch, his first mate, and resort marina Captain Pips Marina.
Parasailing accident
Supraja Alaparthi, 33, was enjoying a parasailing adventure with her son and nephew on May 30, 2022.
The family raised concerns about the weather before booking the parasailing trip, but their concerns were dismissed by the company.
According to the incident report filed by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, Captain Couch took the group out parasailing despite poor weather conditions. And when conditions worsened, he cut the towline to the parasail.
