I'm sure that will be looked at but it's entirely possible the force of the impact caused it to raise, but then again the experts I'm sure will look at everything to see if anything failed prior to the crash or was something that happened during or possibly when they were attempting to put it on the trailer.
Either way it was a very sad occurrence and from all accounts a quality individual was taken from all of us in the boating community.
Godspeed....RIP

Craig,
Glad to hear you are doing ok
Our prayers are with you as well my friend.
I know this is going to take along time to heal both the physical and emotional damage done as a result of you being involved in such a horrific experience
If there is any thing we can do for you, or Kevin's family, please let me know

Houseboat location
I am not an accident reconstruction expert... but.... that houseboat had to be a contributing factor, as the boats rounded the corner,. saw the channel restriction, and set themselves up for the straight.. maybe Kevin saw this, moved over a wake to pass, and the incident took off from there.. the pic of that houseboat, in that position, is VERY unnerving to say the least..
