They were going NORCAL to HI but only made it 40NM out to sea??? That would be some pretty epic fuel mismanagement, if that's what it was.
And how hard is it switch tanks or whatever before ending up in the drink?
Although if a ferry tank was involved, there could have been plumbing issues.

They turned around because they knew they had an issue. Contacted the Coast Guard when it was apparent they could not back it back to land.

Personally, I'd vastly prefer to ditch a retract than fixed gear.
