The woman in the green is one tough chick. She handled the situation extremely well.
Things can change very quickly. Obviously the captain wasn't intending for that to happen. Just a bad series of events. I don't think anyone should question his abilities. I know personally running at 100mph In a v bottom is a risk. Fast speeds and an unpredictable lake is a risk. He unfortunately ended up with an accident. On another note I can never see my 46 cigarette that I used to own ever getting that far out of control.

From my totally unqualified view point looks like he entered into a turn at a high rate of speed while chopping the throttles which enabled the back end to come around. Moved the center of gravity from the steps to the forward part of the hull. Can someone correct my probably wrong view on this? I'm sure it's been discussed but I don't feel like navigating 24 pages of this to find out.
