I had to make the same decision years ago. My wife does not like going fast. Then I said I can make a FAST boat go SLOW but I can't make a SLOW boat go FAST. The wife is not always in the boat.

Imagine what a nightmare this would be if it happened to any of us. I don't think anyone should be giving the driver any shi+ right now.

Couple of comments here if I might.
#1. If the drives hit hard enough to roll the boat there damn sure would be damage. Probably no skegs at the least. Props would also have battle scars. Especially at 45 MPH's. Anyone seen the drives yet? At higher speeds where the drives are semi surfacing and the hull is flying damage may have been more minimal but at 45 it'd be like hitting a submerged telephone pole. #2. Is it me or does the deck at the bow appear to be seperated from the hull in the picture of the boat upside down? |

Notice I DIDN'T post anything NEGATIVE about the boat, operator, incident or location! I am very happy all are ok. It could happen to any of us. I will still get labled "that guy" for hanging out with these clowns though. :rolleyes:
I suspect had there been any injuries at all there wouldn't any joking around here of course. |
