Another accident at LOTO yesterday
 

I'm sad to report there was another accident as boats were heading home from the shootout yesterday, this time involving what looks to be a v-bottom. From what I was told, there were 6 or so people ejected with one fatality. These are the incidents that I just hate to hear about, having lived through the tragic experience just two years ago.

Heading downstream it is easy to hug the corner too tight rounding the bend across from Paradise.

Sad. It looks like some sort of cruiser with a bow anchor, but hard to tell.

"The driver of the boat was arrested on charges of boating while intoxicated, causing the death of another person, and careless and imprudent operation."

How many of these do we need to witness before drivers change their ways? My thoughts and prayers go out to all that are affected by this loss.

Please make a choice (drink or drive) but there is no option for both. These continued acts are going to create additional laws that will limit all boaters and the current freedoms we have.

This happened before dark. We saw the patrol boats headed that way on our way to dinner. Sad

32' Crownline open bow. Explains how they had so many people onboard and how someone could end up in the props. I always cringed when I saw folks sitting upfront in boats on rough days.

RIP to the deceased.

How can a boat like that even get on plane with 15 people? That amount is just absurd IMO.
