Nothing like seeing a buoy go by your port side at about 40 knots . We've all been there . Or else you have not done enough boating. I can't imagine hitting one of those steelies the Sea lions lay on . Wow that's at tough thing to go through . Best wishes to the pilot

We now have two post out of the last 5 or so that say "I run at night because I know my area". You all may recall the runabout that ran into a non-lighted temporary construction barge at night a while back and killed several people. This guy knew the area like the back of his hand too, but guess what, you never know when things change in that area you know so well.
But of course all charges were dropped since he was a cop...uh..I mean since they couldn't prove he was driving the boat.

Are you talking about the incident in Peoria, IL? If so, that guy was smoked...his BAC via blood draw at the hospital after the accident was 0.157....
