"The plaintiffs are seeking $75,000 in damages."
They are suing, blaming the manufacturer and asking for
$ 75,000.00? That in itself seems bizzare.
Sorry to hear about the deaths, but who was driving? Did they know how to operate the boat?
How the hell do you run into a tug at speed?
Sue the driver, not Crownline.

Though there were 14 passengers, Sullivan said that didn't contribute to the accident. He said witnesses told him the boat driver's view was obstructed by people on the bow. The woman driving the boat was chosen for that role because she was sober, Sullivan said.
14 People? Thats over the CG rating for the boat. Case dismissed!
Driver was sober, but had she operated this boat before? At what point do you stop the boat and say "I can't see"?
