Sounds like an outside influence may be involved here.

Typical reporting. Was weather a factor?

 

[WATERDOG]

We had one explode in Thompson Bay. I'm guessing gas leak.

 

[monkeyswrench]

We need boots on the ground
@Shlbyntro to the bat phone!

What news from the mark?

BS article. The parade was not the cause, it is idiot owners. Heard at least 1 forgot their plug.

Typical Daily Mail reporting:

A total of 29 boating deaths were reported on the 65-mile long lake in 2018, according to Texas Parks & Wildlife

There were 29 boating deaths in the entire state during 2018.

The article says there were 29 deaths on that lake in 2018.

No injuries were immediately reported at the event, which was taking place on Lake Travis.

And the link to the TP&W website they put up says there were 29 deaths in Texas, not on Lake Travis. Why do you think I made the post?

AUSTIN – Last year, 29 boating fatalities and hundreds of boat accidents and injuries occurred on Texas waters. As part of National Safe Boating Week May 18-24, Texas Parks and Wildlife Department law enforcement are reminding Texans to be safe this Memorial Day weekend and all summer long by following the law and taking basic safety precautions while on the water.

Obviously surf boats were the cause.

And why do you think I stated that “the article says”. I went back and re read it but It seemed real high to me.

Have to wonder who in the big cruiser just passed the little boat off plane. Didnt see a Trump flag. Im sure that town is full of plenty of lib boaters that heard about the parade.

I didn't catch that. If it was me, there might have been words with the guy that escalated into self defense if ya know what I mean.

That's a really good point. If that happened, it would be great to see the wake laws actually enforced for once.

The news is reporting the Havasu parade had a boat explode..

the boat that caught fire at the marina had nothing to do with the Trump parade
