I suspect you are correct, Watson.

Hope everyone is ok.

Well
 
If he was trying to drive around the back of the house than he doesn't know the area to well. There is a boat lift right next to where he hit. Now if were night time and he was trying to dock at say 40 mph I could see that happening.

Man found safe after search ensued when boat ran aground
By CHARLES WEBSTER • STAFF WRITER • July 6, 2010

TOMS RIVER — A 20-year-old Hewitt man ran his boat aground at Hanken's Island, sparking a search by air, land and sea after he could not be found, New Jersey State Police said Joe Bove's boat ran aground sometime before 10 p.m. Saturday and Bove apparently walked away from the vessel.


He was later found at a home in Ocean County, but not before a search of the Barnegat Bay area was conducted by State Police aviation and marine division troopers with the help of boats of several Toms River fire companies, State Police said.


No further information was available.

Vnemous's post indicates the pictures are from an incident occuring Sat July 17 pm? The story referenced is from approx2 weeks ago?

LaughingCat 07-19-2010 08:25 AM

My first thought, 'President GHWB needs to stop piloting his own boat.'

TEAMBAJA 07-19-2010 08:50 AM

Imagine when the kids dad woke up and saw the Donzi pointing at the sun!:eek:
