I really feel like we are in a war zone. This year has to be one of the worst for boating accidents that i can remember. Lets all be a more careful and put this year to sleep without it taking anyone else. For those who did not know Bruce well he was a great guy, he loved boats, he was in the boat hauling business and would always lend a hand. He helped sponsor the Battle on the Bay. He also owned a kryptonite boat which he loved. He is survived by his wife who worked with him at the boat hauling business. I won't give details of the accident other then a mechanical problem caused the boat to violently vear right putting the 2 men in the water. When we pulled up to the scene they were swimming and I reallized the Bruce was one of the 2 men. With out going into detail we got them to the dock were the ambulances were waiting. Bruce did not survive, we are numb and deeply saddened. He will be missed, Louie

My condolences to the family
I knew this was very bad when I approached the accident site. Thank God Louie and crew were there to get the men out of the water. Unfortunatly things didn't turn out as we were all praying for.
Once again my sympathy to all involved.
