What's your point? The "authorities" also haven't ruled out suicide,
heart attack, seizure, diabetic coma, a fall, and on and on.

I should have known better than to post something relating to boating
here.

I wouldn't worry about it too much - there are ignorant people
everywhere.

I'd like to thank you for posting the note - my brother lives just off
Lake Erie on the other side of Cleveland and we've taken our boat up
there for several lake runs - always a good time. It just surprises
me that people go out running that late at night (approx 12:30 am),
presumably above 20mph, with MINIMAL lighting on the boat. I'm sorry
that this resulted in a loss of life, but I can't imagine running
around in those conditions - even if there was a (near) full moon on
Monday.

I agree with you regarding the operators being out at such a late hour
and traveling at excessive speeds.

I would be surprised if it is determined that alcohol was not involved.

JimH would consider your boat to be a "I call them "Go Fast" or
"Obnoxious" boats."

Tread lightly. He can be a huge asshole.

Here's something funny. I see over at Chuck's that JimH is chastising
someone because he has interests "other than boating". He then comes
here and whines like a little baby because every single post isn't
about boating........

A good place to discuss boats.

For someone with as much disdain for Chuck's Place as you have
demonstrated here, you sure spend a lot of time reading the posts there
and commenting on them here, even the ones you don't understand, which,
apparently, is most of them.

Interesting you don't post there. No balls for *that* either, I suppose.

If Loogy & Gang couldn't whine and post off-topic, why, they'd have no
reason to post here or anywhere else.
