Don't know but I'm trying to find out. Got a few things I'd like to have out of it.

Let me know if you need a partner, obviously you are closer to the situation than I am.

Why do T/S Cigs tend to be the leader of the pack in these kind of accidents? Fountains are more plentiful yet they don't go over as much as Cigs.
1. LipShip Gladiator Blue/Silver Texas
2. Storm Debris 38 TG - Tickfaw
3. Current 38 TG - Tickfaw
4. F2 38 TG - LOTO
5. NJ TG - Last weekend
6. NJ TG - about 2 years ago/ boat was recently for sale damaged
7. Lipship Gladiator - Biscayne Bay late last year
These are just the ones on the top of my head. The only Fountain I can think of is Cashbar's incident.......

8. Jassman's 00' single step spun out twice but due to his impecable driving ability he was able to upright his TG with all passenger's in tact

2001 Cig 38 - SOLD! Looking for 39
|
The single step at LOTO was practicing for the OSS race wasn't it?
As for fountians there are a lot of them that also wrecked. Remember the back half of the 38 sitting on the beach, then the 2 that were up in the trees.
Those are the 3 that come to mind off the top of my head, I am sure there are more.
Heck Morgan flipped a 28 Skater a couple of years ago at LOTO and the 30 with arnesons went over a year or so too. Does that make the small skaters dangerous?
There's plenty of accidents to go around for each mfgr.

Honeyman Skater, Bonefish Spectre............cats are all fast and subject to blowovers/wrecks. I wouldn't count any mechanical failure, alcohol related crashes or physical hits (like running aground, hitting a post) but I thought it was odd the amount of "Cig Spins" that have happened seemed out of proportion but maybe they just got more publicity than the competition.

Ya it does actually!  Small cats are probably THE most dangerous boat in the wrong, inexperienced hands. I had a small cat as my second go-fast and it was very unforgiving.
