Marina/Ramp: Currently mostly out of Jamestown but spend a lot of time at the other Marinas.

Pre2012-Conley Bottom Mostly, Waitsboro, Alligator I&II ramps, Leesford, Pulaski County Park (when it has water), Grider, State Dock (via boat), and Jamestown are a few places you might find me.

The Pulaski County coroner got a call just after 5:00 P.M. that someone had found a body in Lake Cumberland.





PULASKI CO., Ky. (WKYT) - A man has died after a diving accident at Lake Cumberland.

The Pulaski County coroner got a call just after 5:00 P.M. on Sunday, that someone had found a body in the lake, east of Woodsen Bend, about five miles from Burnside.

The coroner said George John Fiorini, 42, had gone 50 to 60 feet up a cliff and tried to do a backflip off, when he landed on his back.

It took nearly two hours for search and rescue crews to retrieve his body from the water.

Fiorini had a Cincinnati, Ohio license, but he had recently moved to Ludlow, Kentucky.

Fiorini's body was sent to Frankfort for an autopsy.

Very sad, he lived in Ludlow which is just west of Covington, and south of Cincinnati. It was on the local news today.
