Talked with Terry Sobo who was on the scene. He explained to me that the helicopter was side ways about 100 feet in front of Pure Platinum taking some head shots. Then for some reason tripped and unfortunatly went down. Bob Teauge did manage to avoid the helicoter and ran over some of the debris. I wont mention names, not my place. My heart and deepest simpathies go out to all the families involved. I'm very sorry this had to happen. God Bless.

Is Bill Pyburn OK??? Damn, this sucks.

I just spoke with those at Powerboat and they really appreciate the thoughts and prayers. They are getting a huge volume of calls that can't be answered right now. Please give them some space and time to get through this. A very big part of the PBM family is gone and it is a very sad day.

Our prayers are with the families of the crew.

Thoughts and prayers to families involved.
If the rumors are correct, the Powerboat family has a huge hole today.
God Speed.

My heart goes out to Powerboat Magazine and all involved, You are in my prayers. Words cant describe the sadness. God bless.

Just heard, my heart is heavy - Our thoughts and prayers to the families in this time of sorrow and anguish, GOD speed.
