So why the topic heading of Sunsation boat crash ??? Sounds like CNN reporting to me where you speculate and add drama to the facts. Is OSO now the CNN of Boating Boards?

We have a 300 GPM trash pump that we use to empty tanks etc .. It raised my 18 foot sidewinder jetboat in minutes after it sank at the dock ..and let me tell you, "DONT" put your hand or clothing near the intake side
