    Boat Accident Lake Saguaro

    Saw this on facebook. It said it happened at a tourney on Lake Saguaro yesterday. Make you think how this occurred. It also said the parties involved are ok.

    Maybe they where fishing bushes and the tide went out...... I surprised you didn’t see more accidents the way some people drive their boats. Especially in tournaments .

    Glad all are ok. To get that far up the bank I am assuming someone was going a bit fast.

    Yikes! I don’t see a skeg on the LU. if I had to make a guess, he hit a rock, lost the skeg and the rudder authority it provides and the boat hooked into the bank. Although, at one of the blades looks fine so who knows.

    That is taking fishing shallow too far.

    Makes you wonder if it's crime seen tape. I don't see a point in putting caution tape around it.

    Most likely to keep onlooker's away for there own protection.
    Could be fuel or oil spilled. Never know when Bubba will try to get a better look at the hull and Jethro will lean on the same side.

    Do not understand how something like that could possible happen with a responsible person behind the wheel and no alcohol or drugs involved. What a waste...
