A man and woman are found dead on a boat near the Three Sisters Island chain on Lake Lanier in Forsyth County.
Forsyth County Deputy Jennifer Belafi says someone requested the Georgia Department of Natural Resources to conduct a welfare check on the 24-foot Bayliner cabin cruiser boat Monday evening after not hearing from the couple.
Belafi says DNR Rangers boarded the boat when they couldn't make contact with anyone on board and that's when they discovered 40-year-old Julie Wright and 39-year-old Andrew Maronge dead in the front cabin from what appears to be carbon monoxide poisoning.
Friends of the couple say they planned to get married later this year and that Wright leaves behind two teenage daughters.
Belafi says they do not suspect foul play but the bodies have been sent for routine autopsy. The case remains under investigation.
