Hello,
I need your help with Mads Hansen's burial record 29 Apr 1745, Nexöe Kirkegaard, Sönder Herred, Bornholm: Nexöe Sogn Kirkebog 1688-1756 [Ny udgave = New Edition], opslag 251b
I have attached an image of the record for your use. The record appears to be unusually long for a burial record.
Please transcribe the record in Danish and then translate it into English.
Thank you for your help.

Buried Thursday after Dom. im post Hæx.? April 29
Mads Hansen living near the school, who on Monday
before April 26 at 8 in the morning ('before noon') inside
the quay at the moorings of the ships here in the harbour
in strong gale and 'weather' disappeared at the capsizing
of the boat, he together with 2 other men was on board,
which (2) men both were saved from this great
danger; but he alone drowned in his age's
34 years 4 months less than 4 days.

Hej Ole,
Thank you for your assistance with this record. The story is quite gruesome. Fortunately he had children before his untimely death!
I appreciate your time and help.
Mvh,
David
