Well senza, when the planets align in a certain configuration and the wind is out of the east....Of course he can't assure.....it was a statement to determine abilty... It's like saying you have a buddy who always has the right answer in trivia and making the comment that he knows everything.....of course he doesn't know everthing, but he's a smart guy...
this thread should be deleted...is that possible? To many back seat drivers talking.

Bad results are not always driver error. Good thing nobody got hurt. None of the 6 on board required medical attention and the drver blew .00 ! ! ! So all you Monday morning drivers can leave that off your list. We all should be grateful that the only thing lost is a boat. Corey sorry for your bad luck.

So I am new to go fast boating..... Ive been going to the moot for a few years though. I know how shallow it is there and know water is more shallow this year.... I always hear boats that seem to be going real fast near the middle channel side....
I will admit this, I did get to the moot real early Saturday and I did a coulple runs back and forth from there to the light houses... In the bay I stayed away to boat area and the middle channel side.
Im glad no one got hurt, and I am using this as a lesson to make sure I am safe out that way.

Oh, you've made it plenty clear EXACTLY what kind of a man you are. You crossed the line with your comments and obviously have some sort of self-esteem issue with yourself... how's that working out for you?
Welcome to my ignore list, population: you

Never understood the need to play pretend offshore racer in the Moot, the water is to calm, to thin and to crowded. Besides that everyone is looking for naked girls not pretend offshore racers.

Ok Folks...I was a passenger on this boat. Lets stop the rumors.
•our speed when we made the turn was between 40-45 mph
•Nobody on the vessel had any alcohol in them....if we made it to the sand bar, they wouldn't be a true statement.
•we did not make a "J" turn. It was much more gradual than that.
•The captain is an experiacned boatsmen, and the event that took place was not foreseable
•Now for my recap of what happened from a view point on the boat. We were out towards the channel and started making a left turn to give us a straight shot in to dock the boat. I didn't see any abnormal waves or shallow water. In mid turn, the boat jerked once shifting me over into the person next to me, then another jerk. As soon as there was the second jerk, I felt myself skipping across the water. When I stopped, I put my feet down and I was in about 3 feet of water. We then did a quick head count and saw the boat was upside down, and facing the opposite direction. Our only guess right now is that one of the drives hit bottom, dropped the nose down and spun us out. No seriouse injuries..bumps, bruises, whip lash
