Wow, I'd bet that the lifejackets saved at least one life.

Quite the contrast to the infamous Fountain blasting through a shipping lane. Things happen and I’ll call this one a happy ending.

Glad to hear everyone is relatively ok. I hit a log at 80 mph almost ripping my drive from the midsection. It can happen to any of us at anytime. I hope they all have a speedy recovery.

Very scary, glad it wasn't worse. I remember running Sat and looking down at one point only to see rocks and what appeared as shallow (reality it was 20' depth), we could have experienced the same thing, any of us. MY PALMS WERE SWEATY!
