WeekendWarrior Posted August 31, 2015 Author Posted August 31, 2015 Yep Wrench, that's what it looked like from four rivers area all the way home to 28 mm, big rollers in all directions. Got a workout on the wave runner coming home. ? was much better Sunday by the house. I would say it was the roughest water of the year, especially up this way.

WeekendWarrior Posted August 31, 2015 Author Posted August 31, 2015 Boater Seriously Injured In High-Speed Incident LakeExpo.com | Posted 16 hours ago LAKE OF THE OZARKS, Mo. — An Aurora, Colo. man was hospitalized on Saturday evening after a boat struck a wake while traveling at a high rate of speed, according to the Missouri State Highway Patrol. The Patrol reported Timothy Greufe, of Parker, Colo., was driving a 1998 Formula southbound around the 31 Mile Marker of the Lake of the Ozarks, at 4:16 p.m. According to the report, Greufe was “traveling at excessive speed” when the boat hit a wake and the outdrive broke. As a result, 40-year-old Jeffrey Gaines was thrown around inside the boat and collided with another occupant. Gaines was taken by Camden County ambulance to Lake Regional Hospital for treatment of serious injuries.
fishinwrench Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Trying to imagine how hitting a wave of water can "break the outdrive". I'm at a loss.
fishinwrench Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 SOME wrench SOME. you know about that half butt in the cigarette boat that was diddling around up at the 7 mile marker near CoCo's ??? Rammed made a tight turn evidently to fast thru himself off the controls and intoxicated passenger and the boat went on to destroy a dock. I read he was injured seriously. Raemi and Amber were there and saw it. Actually the damage to the dock isn't bad at all, we ran over and looked at it and you could hardly tell anything happened. And the occupants were a little sore and shook up but otherwise OK. Nobody was drunk so I'm not sure how or why that got reported. The passenger was the guys "mistress" so that's why he was in a hurry to settle it and move along. LOL The boat was driven away with only a few gouges in the fiberglass and a busted bow light. conorsixtakc 1
Old plug Posted August 31, 2015 Posted August 31, 2015 Well it is a good example to learn from . Always remember when tooling along with your honey at high speed to keep both hands and all fingers on the the steering wheel. WHARFRAT 1
