'tis only a little scratch, though! <br /><br />How in the world did that happen? Did you witness it or find the pics on the web? I am guessing either throttle got stuck, or severe driver error.<br /><br />Glad it's not my boat!

Tornado? <br />Hurricane? <br />Flood? <br />Tsunami?<br />Overpropped?<br />Forgot to extend flaps on final approach?<br />Really, really big, angry viking?<br />Driver took a wrong turn on the way to the boat ramp?<br />No no, I've got it now - it must have been...<br />Gravity!

either throttle got stuck, or severe driver error.

I had a friend email me these photos, and the story that accompanied the photos was along the following lines:<br /><br />Guy had recently bought the boat and had limited experience. Attempted a sharp turn at a high rate of speed. Him and his buddy were both thrown from the boat, and he was not wearing the kill switch lanyard The photos do a good job of showing the result.

Yeah - just came across the pics on Stingray users' webpages on Stingrays server.<br /><br />No matter the story, it's scary pictures! Somehow it's amazing the boat it stil [relatively] in one piece.

Was a nice boat but no more! Hope they have got insurance for that boat. <br /><br />The boat must be travelling at very high speed, if you look at the picture closer the pine tree almost split it in half. And that takes a lot of power to do that.

I guess that guy won't be looking for a big discount when his insurance renews.

Doesn't a scratch, regarless of length, depth, or width justify the replacement of said vessel? Answer this correctly, wifey like to check up on me. It starts with a Y

Starts with a 'Y' ?<br />Can't think of the word you're looking for.<br /><br />How about:<br />Yesterday (but not today)<br />Yah - an expression of defiance<br />Yammer - an expression of lament<br />Yarn - a likely tale<br />Yawn - 'I've heard that one before'<br />Yearn - Love to, but can't<br />Yen - a longing or desire<br />Yield - 'I wear the trousers'<br />Yodel - crying in the wind<br />Yonks - a long long time<br />Yowl - a loud wailing cry<br />Yardbird - a prisoner<br /><br />and others not printable here.
