Yea, and thanks them the rest of us have insurance rates go through the roof...
Not speaking specifically to this accident because then again who knows what actually happened. Since for some weird reason no one seems to have any info on this particular incident but the DCB thread is how many pages long? Cig's have always been a handful to turn at speed, at least the stepped versions...imho...

Yes, I realize this.He could've really hurt someone over a * ucking hat....and Mike that comment was not directed at you simply a general statement which more often than not people do. Hence why multiple people agreed. If you don't specify people jump to conclusions.

Not a bad hull design, just bad drivers.
That is why the Tres Martin course is so important to learn the correct way to drive.
EXAMPLE: Take an average 16 year old kid with learners permit, put him in a Corvette/Ferrari,etc, place on race course and see how long it takes to mess up.
PERFORMANCE vs inexperience, bad things can happen.

I wasn't saying it's OL, and stepped bottoms aren't dangerous if you know what you're doing.
That exact analogy is pretty much the nail on the head.
The minute you disrespect these things they kill you...
Let's hope this is the end of the mis-haps for the year and everyone has a safe and fun boating season.
