I'm glad everybody is going to survive.

I didn't know that this was the "most dangerous pass in the world"

that's what I thought, you can see the drive when it's out of the water. Not to mention the boats general attitude

The pass is no more dangerous that Hallover, Light House Point, and Govenment Cut on a busy day. Driver error!

Agree 100%. None of those mentioned should be navigated at 70+ mph in a 32 foot boat. Again, agreed - driver error!

We have had coast guard cutters sink in that pass.

Looks like the throttles are still pinned when it lands. Takes off again???

Entirely too much trim.That is why you should not ride with someone that is trying to impress you on how fast there boat is and is a little in inexperienced on running the boat.I hope that everyone will be OK.
