Man here we go again, no matter whos at the wheel, when traveling that speed u get a lot of air packing under the hull and hit a wake, its like a jet plane lift off. thank god everyone survived.

Same thought here.

That could have been a LOT worse! Glad they're OK.

I watched the video, and I saw boats coming back. It takes a while to get stopped running a buck 40, does it not?
