Why couldn't they string oil spill boom across the aloughs for containment?

Don't know about that but my son and grandson were on our waverunner in the Parker Creek bay and hit something semi-submerged that ripped a hole in the waverunner and almost threw them off.  Point to be made:  stay the he!! off the water until this stuff either moves to shore or sinks.  A waverunner can be repaired or replaced.  Sons and grandsons on the other hand are too precious to risk.

I agree... stay off the water!  We were down here for a previously scheduled weekend and didn't even think about putting the boat in the water until we heard it was ok by officials.  We only ventured into the big water outside our slough and decided to go back to the house after seeing all the stuff that was out there.  The Marine Police/ other authorities don't have the time right now to be rescuing boaters who have lost a prop or damaged their boats due to running over debris.

I was sitting on my porch today looking at the water and among the camera boats and rubberneckers, here comes a pontoon boat speeding by pulling a zip sled with three little kids in it. I am talking like 6-7 yr old kids. This was in the slough in front of Paces Bluff, the Impy Road area. We have trees, utility poles, floor joists, plywood, furniture, and all that goes into houses and docks floating out there. I would not have even put a boat in and they were towing little children. Makes you wonder....

Idiots will be idiots, but it would seem we should be able to protect their kids from their idiocy.

I am glad they are ok. Did you ever figure out what was hit? Where were they when it happened?  I thought about getting the sea doo out but glad I did not.

Directly across the "bay" from Bolton Cove .(south?),where there are no houses, fairly close to shore.

From your place headed toward Veazey's (BTW, it is for sale), near the right shoreline, near where it becomes a point and you head right toward the 63 bridge..
