It can happen at anytime in any type of boat. But I would rather be in a Skater going fast than any other cat. I am willing to take that risk. I just need a rich uncle to leave me his estate in order to afford this risk taking desire. All brands do have their share of accidents, EXACTLY! |
No, it was a piston powered boat, I was told it had Mercury 900's, six drives. Know one knew what exactly happened, the end result was horrible, people died that were out trying to have fun. Could the Skater have been designed to avoid this accident (in a non-raceboat form - without full canopies and restraints)? My answer is - not sure since no one knows what happened. I do know this - I feel for their families of the deceased.

The f-ed up part about the above story is the motorhome owner actually won the suit against the manufacturer. Big dollars and a brand spanking new motorhome...
I don't think that is a real story. I head that as a "dumb blond" joke. |
