It keeps getting weirder around here! No they havent caught the creep who killed the lady from Osakis that I knew. Then, yesterday at around 5 pm, a boat with 6 people in it went out of control and hit the shore killing 2. This happened less than a mile from me.
Saw that on the news down here in the TC. Latest information is the dead girl was driving the boat. It hit their own wake and went airborne. Just from the pics it looks like a 24' Donzi or similar with probably a big block I/O. A 60+ mph boat for sure. Alcohol was also involved according to CBS.
I've got a 20' 350 V8 runabout that will hit 60. Primarily use it on the St. Croix. The wakes from the big cruisers will launch you real good if you're not careful. It's easy to lose control when you go airborne. Too bad a fun day on the water had to end in tragedy.
