Stranger, I wasn't there when it happened to know whether it was intentional or not

A thought that crossed my mind was how long a flare would continue to burn if I shot someone & they fell in the water. Great one for Mythbusters!

If I lost 100 gals of fuel the boat would weigh in at my guesstimated weight of 13,500 which is close to what it weighed on the tow home from SportBoats.

I would have expected that boat to be lighter, pretty similar to what mine weighs.

For reference my boat was 10,800.

18,800 Truck, Trailer, Boat (100 gallons fuel/water)
8000 Truck and Trailer (triple axle aluminum)
5600 Truck (Nissan Armada)
