My son's friend and family were on the pontoon that helped pull the sunk boat to safety after watching the accident. According to my son, it was a Fountain (or similar) that hit the other boat. The driver left the accident and said he needed to save his 20K motor....he did not leave contact information. The water patrol showed up fairly quick, but after the other boat left.

They need to hang this guy out to dry! I know this will fuel previous arguments about boat size, but my bet is that speed, alcohol, and low visibility were the cause. Lets concentrate on the real issues to help prevent this from happening again. If you see the offending boat, call the water patrol.
