On December 4, 2001, 18-year-old Kansas State freshman Kyle Chapman went sailing on Tuttle Creek Lake with classmates Christopher Shipley, 18, and Timothy Michael Bennett, 19. The three experienced sailors launched from the Blue Valley Yacht Club in Chapman's yellow 15-foot racing sailboat, leaving shoes on the dock. They were last seen after classes that day and were reported missing the next afternoon.

Two days later the sailboat was found capsized and empty, its keel and rudder detached and the jib still in its bag. Bennett’s body was recovered in Carnahan Creek about half a mile from the boat; he was wearing his life jacket. Extensive air and ground searches for Chapman and Shipley turned up no trace. Chapman’s truck and an empty boat trailer were found at the lake with personal items inside. Foul play is not suspected and both Chapman and Shipley are presumed to have drowned.

Are there anyone who sailed Tuttle Creek Lake that week who remembers these conditions or saw the boat that day?
