From the report it was all white 27 with front damage, Trim Tabs busted and the vin numbers scraped off. This guy should be hung, talk about knowing you hit someone. He forgot that there is a serial number on a motor.

Just in from the Asbury Park Press
What to hell is a Imperial? sounds more like a Bayliner to me.
POINT PLEASANT — Investigators from the State Police and the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office are continuing to piece together evidence in the Sunday boat crash that left one person dead and four others injured.
So far no one has been charged in what investigators have termed a hit-and-run on the water.
Troopers believe they have located the second boat from the crash and have today executed a search warrant "in an attempt to recover definitive evicence to conclude whether this is the other involved vessel,"State Police Sgt. Stephen Jones said. The boat was described as a 27-foot Imperial speedboat.
The owner of the boat is a 29-year-old Brick man who has yet to be questioned, Jones said. Police did not publicly identify him further.
"The State Police Fatal Accident Unit continues to piece together the evidence to produce a picture of the circumstances surrounding the crash," Jones said. "The preliminary evidence indicates that both boats were moving at the time of the crash. It is not yet known if both vessels were using the proper nighttime running lights."
Troopers have impounded the boat and taken it to a garage at the State Police marine station at Point Pleasant, Jones said.
The crash occurred at approximately 1:14 a.m. Sunday, in the mouth of the Metedeconk River in Brick, police said.
The Whaler, with five persons on board, was run over by the much larger speedboat, according to a State Police statement.
The owner of the Whaler, Robert Post, 49, of Essex Fells, died on impact from head trauma. The four other occupants were all injured and taken to Jersey Shore Medical Center in Neptune, the State Police said.
They are Bonnie Post, 52, of Essex Fells, Cliff Farren, 45 of St. Davids, Pa., Joan Farren, 46 of St. Davids, Pa., and Karen Kelly of Norcross, Ga.

All Seasons (ASI) made boats under the Imperial brand. They did a Squadron 27 splash in the 80's. That would be my guess on the boat they're describing.
I had one and sold it several years ago to some clown from that general vicinity- a concrete finisher. I'm curious if it's the same guy.

I'm pretty ADD- especially when it comes to hobbies. That was a boat that I bought on impulse and realized it would take more than it was worth to get into shape- so off to Ebay it went. There are pics somewhere on the site of it- the prior owner is a member.
