Earlier this week, the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission confirmed that Gauthier died of his injuries in Broward County. The FWC said its preliminary investigation in Fort Lauderdale showed a 37-foot vessel exploded after its engines were started, injuring all seven passengers on board.

Several local media outlets are quoting the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission as saying Sebastien Gauthier died after the explosion at the Lauderdale Marina.
