It was during the day and the driver was not drunk. I'm not going to post anything more than that, as it's not my place. I just want everyone to not start speculating it was a drunken night escapade, as I hated it when my accident happened and so many online came to conclusions about what happened that were not true. Again, I'm just so thankful that nobody was hurt and we should all take this as a reminder to drive responsibly as we come into the season this year. This could happen to any of us, especially those of us that drive high speed cats.

The green paint scheme makes it really look at home in the woods...

The Fountain boys might have to re-up their record (remember the 42 standing upright on its transom in the woods). Glad nobody was hurt, feel bad for all of the cat owners trying to get their insurance renewed next year! Pool of insurers is getting smaller and one claim like this is enough for an insurer to say enough is enough.

Looking at the tow straps on the rear of the boat, are those attached to a strong point in the boat (like how they lift raceboats with the crane) or is that going to just rip off the rear hatches?

Looks like a “pick your lumber” plane crash.
