RIP Father Rooney, such a great person. I will miss that Irish guy, great memories. Thoughts and prayers to rest of families.

This is very sad. Does anyone have any details on what happened? Alot of us have that same boat and I am sure curious what would cause it to capsize in a protected river.

Two "presumed dead". This is the lower Detroit River. The cruiser wakes can get crazy but to flip a boat that big? Wow. These are my boating waters. So sad.

Per this article the boat owner and driver is one of the missing. His wife also went missing in the river last year ! Speculation in the article regarding the boat, its speed and a turn it made prior to the accident.

"The 39-foot Nor-Tech Center Console reportedly rolled at about 7:30 p.m. after hitting a wake." The cruiser wakes get brutal and I've launched my 22' Donzi off a couple but haven't flipped. I guess it can happen to the best though. "My Way" crashed off a wake on the St. Lawrence River.

Thanks for link and info. Too bad. Thst was a lot of people on board for sure.
His wife was found in that river , dead, last year from what ? Anyone know ? |
RIP. Another reminder that things can go bad at any moment.
His Wife may have been suffering from depression and took her own life last year one article said. Man I feel really bad for their 3 kids who now have lost both parents in that river. Very sad. 😪 |
