Good time today, I obviously don't have enough boat to run in that water but we had a blast!

Crap. Boats haven't even made the first card stop and hearing reports of a crash.

Just heard about the single boat accident involving a 38 skater. Our prayers and thoughts go out to all involved. Just horrible to lose 2 people in one of the largest poker runs. Be careful everybody we could all be in that spot very easily. This high performance power boat scene is loads and loads of fun, but it can get very dangerous very quickly. Try to enjoy this beatifull Sunday, and remember the 2 guys from Missouri and there family's. everybody have a safe ride home!

I was setting a few miles up and only saw the boat being towed in. But here is the video of it posted a few hours ago if anyone was looking for it..

Lot of speculation out there as to what actually happened. From this video angle it looks like he may have caught a roost in the tunnel from the other boat, similar to the DCB flip at Desert Storm earlier this year.

Our thoughts go out to the families of both men.

That's hard to watch, althought I never met these men their reputation speaks for itself.

Nice meeting you Doug at the lunch. Always good to put a face with a screen name. I take it my ex bro in law took care of you again this yr. Small world, eh?

Here's another video from a different angle. No speculation on anything. The second and third time you watch it note the cruiser coming from the far side of the channel across the course.

Heartfelt prayers go out to the families and all those affected by such a tragic loss.
