GTX-sorry to misrepresent the boat in question.
I quote "a BOAT coming toward us at a HIGH RATE OF SPEED, hit the pontoon boat from behind". Does it really matter?? The driver was over the legal limit of blood alcohol, it wouldn't have mattered if he were driving a dingy, HE (not the boat) changed many lives last night.

We can sit on our deck most any night and watch boats (ALL kinds of boats) going WAY to fast at night. Ones depth perception is not the same at night.
There should be some sort of limit on speed for those who choose to ride on the lake at night.

Everyone,.. just be careful. The weather will be changing soon, and a nice night time boat ride will sound good to a lot of us. Take it slow, enjoy the ride and the sky and don't be in such a hurry!
