Not trying to start rumors, but there is an older white and red 38 top gun that is stored in my boat storage yard. I have not seen it since the holiday.... Does anyone know what color the boat involved was? I boat in the area quite often and this is the first I have heard of it.

I'm really concerned that I might run over a PWC someday on the local lake. They just dart around without looking. After getting cut off about three times by one guy I tried to call him over to explain to him that he needed to look before turning or I was going run him over. I was not yelling at him. He proceeded to come along side and turn and hose us down with his drive. Then he went and hid for the rest of the day. I wanted to chase him down and beat his azz but I kept a cool head. It's really sad that what looks to be a really nice kid died like this. I hope I never hit one.
