Sitting to the right of my boat is my good friend Chuck's red and gold Skater , he had a terrible accident on the water today . Luckily nobody was injured , but the boat was badly damaged . Chuck had four passengers in the boat and was traversing a set of four foot waves when a careless rear seat passenger who was not holding onto the grab rails as instructed was thrown from the boat . When he heard her scream as she flew out of the boat , he chopped the throttle and the bow dropped suddenly , the sponson tips peirced the next wave and he stuffed the boat . I'm sure you are now wondering what stuffing the boat means , well when you are traveling at speeds over 100MPH and your sponson tips catch a wave your boat suddenly dives under water like a submarine . Except for a few bruises everyone is ok .
Here are some pics of the damage .

still looking for the science job, though.
That is terrible about the damage.
Did I mention that I love boats?
