Bad Accident Potomac Radar Run
 

Don't know details at this point. Prayers needed!!

Big prayers for Garth.

Saw video on FB, it's really bad. I think someone removed it already.

I ask everyone to please just keep this thread about sending positive thoughts and prayers. We are all in the boating family.

This Garth ?

Ya I agree, that is one unreal wreck. Almost reminds me of Mike Fiore wreck, can't believe the boat landed upside down like that.

And I'm glad we won't be having any life jacket debates. This was a shoot out they had helmets on too

I remember giving him **** about his old lifelines at ronnies a few years back, telling him the serial numbers on them were Roman numeral I and II. At Cumberland a month later he had new ones. Man so many memories coming back.

Nicely done sir..... :-(

This is just ****ing sad.

Another tragic day for our sport. RIP

Melley

Thanks.

Thoughts and prayers to the families and friends.

A sad, sad day for the performance boat community. RIP Garth Tagge and Jim Melley.

I seen the video as well. Really the only thing I can say - and I do not even know them but know the boat. Sorry

Actually upsetting seeing the video Those poor guys and no way had a chance. Man sometimes in life I shake my head and ASK - THE LORD - WHY.

Words cannot express my sadness. Two great men. My prayers for their families. Such a tragedy.

So sad to hear this news just now. My condolences go out to their family, friends and loved ones..........

Condolences to the families.

Very tragic, my condolences to friends and family.

Godspeed.

RIP guys.....

Video is very similar to the Fiore crash with the exception of the ejections. Awful day.

RIP, God please give strength to those who feel this loss
