Here he is following one of the snowmobiles, obviously prior to the accident. Maybe he thought he was driving a Ski Doo or Artic Cat?

Not everyone on the Chain is an ******* Woody. Many of us have beautiful offshore boats, are respectful boaters and enjoy the privilege of being hit the water any day in our backyard. I think you'd be suprised at some of the hardware up here now. It's actually starting to clean up quite a bit, DNR and Police are out in force.

Is that boat brand new. I think I remember seeing it on the Chain last year a few times.

Ofcourse everyoe on the chain is not an idiot, by any stretch of the imagination, you know this, cmon now. The chain is a literal cluster when its 90 degrees and you have a hand full of idiots from blarneys island, just buck wild out there. Shallow+drunk fools+2000 boats=No chain for me.

Woody, we are glad you are not boating on the chain with your obvious hatred of the boaters there. It is a large body of water that is shallow in places. My 35' does just fine.

The lower river where that crash happened is a 30mph 90 degree corner. He told the tow company he tried taking it at 70 mph. He rolled it and it hydrauliced the deck off.

OK, I don't know anything about snowmobiles. You can ride a snowmobile on water that is deep enough for a '32 boat to run?

Next question... Why is the boat following the SNOWMOBILE that closely?
