Another boat flipped
Anyone have any more info on the boat that flipped in St joe MI Friday night? Apparently headed to SOTW?
Both people in the boat are okay, some minor cuts & bruises, so that is great to hear. Both wearing life vests, too, something you don't hear often enough. A good samaritan boater saw it and picked them up.
Was a Cigarette, I think a 36 Gladiator. Sea Tow told us it was a 36, but wondered if it was 38. Heard it was stepped, but not sure. I'm not really clear on that, and just wondered if anyone knew exactly what kind of Cig it was. I only saw the front half sticking up out of the water. Steps, if any, were under water. Friend of mine saw it being pulled in and said it had steps.

It just goes to show that things can happen to anyone at anytime. Glad everyone is okay, well, except maybe the owner of the boat who now has some (most likely) insurance tasks/woes to overcome.
