Running those canals like that when you cant see 30' in front of you is just crazy.

Interesting how it was "the other boat's" fault.
If they had actually hit head on like the article said people would have been hurt bad or killed. It looked like the most they did was slide against each other, if even that.
Real trucks don't need spark plugs.

Seems like that's a risk you take running those trails.

It's good they both made their evasive maneuver to each's starboard side respectively, that avoided a really bad collision..

I read the post by the guy on Facebook and not once did he blame the other guy! And I don't know how you can tell how hard they hit as the video camera immediately points to the floor of the boat. It was hard enough for the boat to be dead in the water.

Watch the video and listen to what they said.

I agree with Alpha...I don't see anywhere it places blame on anyone. Matter of fact, the article states "Neither person was in the wrong," Partee told BassFan. "It's unfortunate that it happened and that we met there at the same time." EDIT - OK...I listened to the video. He does say "That guy turned and effed us up."

I can't imagine what I would of said when I just collided with another boat. After the dust settled both parties said neither was at fault. The main thing is that they where both ok. It was way more than just sliding against each other.
