Hey dnebo,

Boat Me didn't explain his post, so I didn't know if you knew the story. It affected the charity for the kids and the fact that the lawsuits shut down SOTW. That annual PR raised thousands foe the local charity plus all the boater's would take the kids out on rides before the event.

Personally, I agree that NO amount of money will comfort a loss. It just really sucks that the lawsuits halted the annual money raised and that our fellowship at SOTW was affected.

It just dosent sound that way to me I guess.
I hope someone will come up with another way to help these kids.

Ditto We still talk about it from time to time.

First I heard of this, and I sincerely don't want to bring up bad feelings. However am I understanding this correctly. A guy buys a new OL, rolled it with no other boat involved, during a poker run, and the family sued? I guess I ask who did they sue, and under what grounds?? Was boat defective? Was the water Defective?
