Last month I was towing when I lost a bearing on front drivers side of a triple axle, was able to pull over before I lost the rim, 
and then ratchet strapped (more like about 4 straps!) the axle up to the trailer 'I' beam and limped home with 2 wheels on one side and 3 on other side.

Not that there's anything funny about an accident like this, it does make me think about some of the recent photos I've seen on here where on-the-water mishaps ocurred. Some of these flyweight cats are reduced to shards by rolling in water. This Formula looks like it could be rolled over & launched. They do build a tough boat.

I was thinking the same thing. Replace the blown out hatch, a new windshield and frame, some minor glasswork, a good buff and drain the oil out of the top of the motors and this thing might be ready for Labor Day. I would have expected the deck to split from the hull along the rubrail. I'm sure there is more damage than visible. Glad everyone os ok!!!

Well put. My understanding is that most tire manufacturers recommend tire replacement after 7 years.
