That kinda looks like one of those Sea-Doo boats...Probably driving out of control and hit a wave wrong...I have done that in a tinny on white lake before...I was 12 and driving with all the weight in the back so it was almost vertical. Caught a good breeze which spun me around into a wave and bam...in the drink. Never did that again and had a new respect for mother nature.
Cigarette boat!!!!! They were probably a bit on the soggy side after this. Must've been hard to light those up. It's true that smoking cigarettes is bad for you!!!!!
My guess is that the wake of a big cruiser is the somehow in play. I had no idea how deep the wake was behind some of those boats until I saw it up close and personal when I almost buried my bow when I first got my boat. At least I hit it dead on.
I read about that incident in the paper - according to the paper the boat was towed to shore same day and the passengers except for some bruises were fine
I rescued a older man from the water on whitefish lake a few weeks ago.
He was out sailing a small boat Id say around 10ft or so. He said that the wake of a large cuiser capsized him. Those people need to pull out the boater safty books and do a little reading.
All smaller underpower boats must be given the right of passage.
With that being said. This is just a reminder that anything can happen out on the water! be carefull guys.
