|
|
Hearing news of a Majek Illusion tower boat flipping over in the Port O'Conner area. Good news is that nobody was killed. Know that the boat was in shallow water, but do not know, was it hitting bottom, waves, or turning sharply, that caused the boat to flip.
If anyone has more information please post. BE CAREFULL OUT THERE! _________________ "I do hunt and I do fish and I do not apologize to anyone that I hunt and fish." - Norman Schwarzkopf |

I think any combo of too much weight in the tower, turning sharply etc could do that. I know, I drive a lifted jeep Be careful out there. _________________ Like Corpusfishing.com on Facebook! |

| My understanding was they were coming out of a back lake after dark and hit land causing it to roll over, everyone was ejected. Very lucky someone wasn't seriously hurt or killed, to add insult to injury the owner came out at dawn on Sunday to recover the boat and someone stole the prop off of it during the night. Hopefully karma catches up to the pos thief. |
