Hit & Run on Lake Minnetonka, MN - Looking for help
 

I was involved in a hit and run accident on Lake Minnetonka tonight (7/23) at about 7:30pm. I'm looking for a 30-something ft Formula with the green and yellow Formula-type paint job. The name of the boat is Soggy Dollar. The boat was being driven by a white male with dark hair and he was alone. We tracked him to Lord Fletcher's where he was seen leaving drunk. If anyone has any information on this person or boat please contact me either on the board or at [email protected].

It left severe damage to the transom. It's possibly totalled. Noone was hurt.

Thanks,
Don

man o man i hope you get him :(

if its registered wouldnt the coast guard have that info for the police.

I am glad that you all are ok. That is the most important thing. After reading last years rear end accident in NH killing the guy you may in some ways consider yourself lucky. That being said you need to call the cops and everyone else to try and catch this scum back. Of course tomarrow he will not be drunk so you will be lucky to get him on that I would think but at leaste you can get him for the hit and run. YOU NEED THE BAT!!!!!!

Man, that is unbelievable! I am sure the authorities will find the scum.....especially if there is that much damage. Can you tell us how it happened?

That is just wrong. I'm over on the river but I'll keep my eye out for this F***er.

TTT

Man the good thing is that you yourself are Ok,Both the boat and the drunk can be fixed..

I've got a couple pair of eyes out on the lake now Don. One has seen the boat before.

What a shame........

Great news Bruce, hopefully the little A$$Hole will get caught.

My probation is up...give me the bat.

Thanks for all the replies as for now the water patrol found the guy early this morning and they have found the boat as well I cant say much more as the investigation is still under way.

The hull looks like it will be total loss my insurance guy will be out tomorrow at-least it did'nt sink.

Thanks again

Glad they got him.

That is good to hear that they caught him, now bury him! Hope everthing goes your way.

Keep us posted as to how they handle this one.

dammnnn
I just now read this, called a local on the lake abd he heard about it
so sorry to hear about your boat, but so glad your ok
btw, you came to my neck of the woods and did not call me :(
I am looking for a newer truck this weekend. If I find one I hope to have the boat water ready the next day.
Hopefully I can offer you a day on the lake.
Also very glad they found him. Does he live on the lake??
I am really getting tired of all the drunks out there. I was almost hit last year just idling through Fletchers. Some a$$ decided to show off and floor it backing out of the dock. I saw it coming adn lucky was able to reverse with no one behind me. He ended up hitting hte dock wall across the channel :)

Sorry to hear that-that sucks! Nothing like some drunken idiot ruining your summer.
If you come back to LOTO, you are more than welcome to ride with me on my slow boat.:D :D

Look at the bright side, maybe your next boat will have bigger fuel tanks!!!:D :p

Seriously, if you come to LOTO for Labor Day, I will have a seat with your name on it!!

I hope it turns out well for you!
