Thanks. When I saw this accident, it Was in a tight area leading out into big water and there were over 75 boats. It was just one of those bad place, wrong time type things. I know most people who own our type of boats are safe. After looking at the pic again, looks like they were slowing down instead of going anyway. Looks like a great time. Hope to move my boat down to Fl next year, store it some where near Boca.

They aren't nearly as close as they look. The phenomenon is known as foreshortening.
Definition: Foreshortening occurs when an object appears compressed when seen from a particular viewpoint, and the effect of perspective causes distortion. Foreshortening is a particularly effective artistic device, used to give the impression of three-dimensional volume and create drama in a picture.
