Anyone know the story about the boat that got swamped and ultimately ended up capsized on Ray Hubbard last Saturday during the high school event?
I have a pic from a friend at the ramp of it capsized and I got a call from the tow boat operator after it happened, but never heard the entire story.

See! This is why immature teens should not be exposed to the great outdoors! Theres plenty for them to get in trouble with in the big city on weekends! ....JK, glad nobody got hurt. Well dad probably was very hurt (assuming it was his boat). Anyone know what happened?

Lots of assumptions here... let me play devils advocate
Just because it happened during the event doesnt mean the person it happened to was in the event
That looks more like a dinghy or sailboat than a bass boat. Look how small it is....and why isnt the outboard sticking up in the air
As for the boat on the trailer....how do we know hes loading? He may just as easily backed down with the winch straps loose and be about to climb aboard when he took the photo.

I was thinking the same. Looks like a little flat hull rowboat.
