I just heard that a large (+/- 40') white cat wrecked in the area of the toll bridge, ejecting driver and passenger.......rescue crews are still searching for the passenger.

Is this true? Any one have any more info?

Chad

Damn, I hope if it is true, that everyone is OK!!!

I heard the same... but heard it was a 30 spectre ...

Don

36 spectre

found this on another site
Story goes the guy and girlfriend are OK
searching for one person

here is the photo
guess the linking was not liked

Hope they find them.

Keep us informed..........We all learn from these and remember were all vulnerable!!
Lets hope its just pride or machinery that took the hit!!

what site is the link from, it will not open. I think a bunch of the Grand Lakers were heading down this weekend, you know the first white 40' cat that came to mind............. We have some many LOTO boaters on this site, man that just sucks

that is correct, saw the 36 spectre coming in port arrowhead, and craned out. this accident made me sick., no lifejackets, boat hooked and ejected all people. I hope we all learn from this wear life jackets. learn the limitations of your boat and respect the speed and be careful, this hurts all of us powerboaters , we do not need any more of these accidents. insurance, speed limits, not what we need.god bless the families. jim midwest performance marine. As of 10:00pm they were still searching for the body.
