Was the drunk in a Go-Fast, or what kind of boat?

We went through a bad patch up here in VA a few years back after a similar incident.

Sad story, Condolences and Prayers for the family on the loss of their two sons. For those injured I hope that their recovery will be speedy but know that mentally it will be a long road to recovery if ever.

According to the article attached above, a large fishing boat collided with a pontoon boat. Sad situation. Prayers to all involved.

The guy that rammed them was in a 21 ft Sea Fox center console. The grandfather of the boys that got killed owns the dealership that sold the guy the cc. Very sad for all.
