Boat Down

[Meaney77]

Headed back to Havasu from Pirates this evening around 5:30 as we were passing the shallow area Back onto the main lake we saw 2 ranger boats, a few sea dont’s and 2 whites sponsons sticking out of the water. Anyone else see it or know the story?

We were the first on scene. He was over trimmed and getting after it. Then he went over

We grabbed the driver and passenger. They then went to their friends boat......

They didn’t stick around for the cops lol. And wouldn’t let my Nurse wife check them out.

Just left it abandoned upside down?

 

[hallett21]

Damn

Scared the shit out of me. We were just past the mouth of the river by 50-100 yards. I look over to my left and watch him lose it once and recover. But he never lifted and hit another wake and went over.

Glad it was just the two of them because we were all ready to go swimming looking for people.

When you say it went over what exactly do you mean? Like the bow lifted and it blew over?

My SIL called 911. I took the phone and said we had the occupants. Then they floated to their friend boat.

About that time my wife is coming to them on the jetski to check on them and try to check them out.

I’m still on the phone with 911 as they tell my wife no we’re fine and don’t call 911. Then I see the boat on plane headed towards the island lol

911 tells us you need to stay with the boat till sheriffs arrive.

Mohave sheriffs showed up quick and were very nice to us [emoji1303]

I thought cats always landed on their feet....
Glad no one was hurt badly as those folks will certainly feel it later.

Left sponson went up. Entire boat out of the water rolling left to right.

But also caught air. So it was a controlled barrel roll back flip.

Don't call the cops = drunk

 

[Rondog4405]

Holy crap..that's wild!!

 

[DWC]

Crazy. We saw the lights and the recovery boat but couldn’t tell what it was. Glad everyone is ok.

 

[riverroyal]

Don’t call 911? Bit drunk huh?

 

[boatdoc55]

Is this another tale of too much money and not enough brains???????????????

I’m sure they sobered up after that.

Glad they were ok considering.....

Leaving the scene of an accident is probably a lesser charge then BWI.

 

[BUDMAN]

Wow. That could have ended badly. Glad they were ok.

Wonder if they try to report the boat stolen.

 

[Lunatic Fringe]

You guys are ridiculous.
Not drunk. Not reporting stolen. Not more money than brains.
Good friend of mine had an accident and we took them to the hospital to be checked out.
An accident and nothing more than that.

Thank you for clearing that up for these guys...seriously unbelievable. And thank you for being there

 

[Lunatic Fringe]

Bumped and banged as expected but all good considering the event.
I got the boat on the trailer and into a shop in town to save the motor.

Thanks for doing all that. I owe you one.

I am assuming by your response this might be your boat? I am glad to hear you guys are okay! As a cat owner myself, what do you think caused the rollover?

Not his boat but he's also a good friend of the owner.

No, I'm a v-bottom guy, so not my boat.

Catpeople = meh

But seriously...if this were me, it would be nice to have a friend like Lunatic Fringe. Takes someone to the hospital, AND trailers the boat to pickle the motor? We need more guys like that in this world.

 

[Rotten deal]

What kind of boat?

 

[GRADS]

I need hospitalization but don't call 911, refuse a nurses advice, let my boat sink. No fucking way.

The following now looks like an over reaction/asshole post by me but only because GRADS deleted 1 or 2 of his comments.

You can call it anything you fucking want you twat.
You don't know what you're spouting off about.
Troll shit that you think is funny but don't fucking start on this.
There's nothing here that needs your opinion.

Exactly grads is a clown and should be banned from the site for good but he’s keeps crying and being allowed back.

 

[DILLIGAF]

F off Grads.

glad you were there to help out LF.

 

[OldSchoolBoats]

Thanks for clearing things up Neil.

I think GRADS has a point, whole situation seems weird to me.

None of my business though and glad everyone is ok, boats can be repaired.

knowing LF very well I can assure you that he jumped into action immediately and knew they could get the parties off the lake faster to medical help rather than waiting for medical to arrive. Time matters.

Be safe when boating

You were in the conquest?

Yup....that's sure how it would look.....I wonder what their ultimate responsibility will be for leaving the boat?

Again, I'm not pointing fingers but it seems really weird to just leave the boat if not seriously injured?

LF’s word is golden. It was about getting to medical help ASAP.

Don't believe everything you read.
Sheriff was involved as required. They needed medical attention more than anything else at that moment.

Ok....I don't know him but I know you.....

 

[MeCasa16]

Are both guys ok? I can’t imagine how crazy that ride must have been.

Injured but will be OK.
It was a pretty violent toss.

Thank you, next up was gonna be that he launched it with a half ton truck.

 

[ONE-A-DAY]

What brand boat is that?

 

[DILLIGAF]

Ok....I don't know him but I know you.....

The story at first may sound bizarre but knowing LF was involved his only concern was to get the parties medical help ASAP and the boat itself was secondary. Then he even got that handled.
