52 Ft Sea Ray Crash, One Down 100,000 To Go

[Guest csfishinfool]

Sea Ray crash

So this guy crashed his boat into a point about a mile from Hurricane Deck. Jumped a 2ft tall sea wall, and crushed his boat to hell and back. The boat was worth over a million bucks. I love this sooo much What makes this story even more funny is that the same guy crashed his Hellicoptar into the lake last summer!!!

I wish I had a "hellicoptar" (LOL) and a million dollar Sea Ray. Seriously, that costs nowhere near $1M, does it?

Apparently it does, I just looked it up and a 2005 model goes for like 800,000!!! Makes you realize how much money is floating around up at Lake O. There are so many boats this size up there. I wonder if this guys insurance is going up LOL.

Dang...............what's a helleecoptir?

Sounds like this guy has way more money than sense.

Here's a link to it on the MSWP website.

I'm a bit skeptical on the Summary.

And, I don't pay much attention to the damage estimate. My understanding is that law enforcement just has to put something there. I imagine if this thing ran aground (hit seawall?), it's gonna cost WAY more than $20k to fix?

Gotta be careful what name you give your vessel.......That one was christened "IMPACT" (no kidding)

There was a big twin big-block Scaraab few years back named "Nauti-bouy" that creamed a big flashing "No Wake / No-Anchor" bouy in Millionaire cove.

And another named "Fools Paradise" that ran into the gas dock at....guess where ? LOL

I, like most folks, have problems with spelling. Here's a good resource to help with that.... http://dictionary.reference.com/

I can't say I'm "happy" to see someone lose a boat like that just as I would not be happy to see someone lose an old beat up jon boat or canoe.

I interviewed with a company in Camdenton a few years back and had not been to Lake of the Ozarks in years. What I saw made me glad I didn't get that job. The lake is nothing more than a playground for those with more money than... well... I'll stop there. And from what I saw, it's a wonder there are not more accidents of this type. But, if that's what they want, then more power to them. That's why I'll stick to fishing small moving water...

I saw that boat Saturday morin. I was quite funny to see. It looked like a circus with all the boats around checking it out.

I'm with you on that. Haven't been there since I was a kid 30+ years ago, and I haven't heard anything that makes me want to go back. Gimme cool, clear, feces-free water and a canoe loaded with just enough stuff to get by, surrounded by the sound of NOTHING, and I'm good.
