Havasu Crash"We want to know"

[superV]

Just thoght I start over since no one is looking at that thread much anymore!

I am just starting to look for a new ride, possibly. It would be nice to know who it was and why it happened. The truth is out there...

Hey BowtieRick..Do you know John H. at your work? He drives the race cars around to the track and works on the race team?
Sure would be nice to know the WHOLE story about this crash.

As much as I would like to start some flame war here...
I heard from the guy from Sea Tow, the dude that actually pulled the wreckage up that it was some 1970 something hooptie with a jet. No name. Like a "Marlin" or something alledgedly. He said it was no suprise it came apart according to him. It looked neglected.
This is from him, and I guess there could be a couple of wrecks that weekend, but if it was pulled up by Sea Tow... it was nothing to concern your new boat purchase with.

Sure would be nice to know the WHOLE story about this crash. Hell yes I know John H. Just was in the race shop on Friday. Froggy got a new avatar! Now that is news if I ever heard it. Hard to beleive no one started a thread on it... do I smell a pole? Not as impactful as the first one but its not too bad either. Perhaps it will grow on me.

I was out there that weekend and it happened after we passed the area. My buddie did see it after it happened. He also said it was a older boat not a newer model. This was near sandbar on 4th of July weekend. Just to make sure we are talking about same crash. I'm sure it is since boats don't come apart every weekend, Thank God!

Yeah, I think what you are talking about was a boat that split down the middle. It was a newer custom boat and the owner said the driver was cruising behind a big boat, hit a wake and the entire thing split, the deck flew off and the back of the boat sank to the bottom. I talked to the owner and tried to hit him up for his hydraulic place diverter PICKLEtheLOAD:
The owner said a 21' custom boat company out of riverside, it was pretty nice, minus the fact it was split in the middle. By the way, Hallett asking for the diverter, you have to strike while cauldon is hot.[/QB][/QUOTE]
BF, you and Froggy might be talking about the same accident.

Dunno? From this guy's description, it was by no means a "newer custom boat" so it was probably a different splitting. He described it the same way though.
