Hi-jack alert
You guys gotta hear this.....Talk about "what were they thinking"

I have a small bass boat that I keep at my Dads house in Michigan. My dad and a friend had it out on Lake Erie a few miles out and were anchored up perch fishing. I had just talked with him via cell phone when the events I am going to relate transpired.

His friend alerted my Dad that a boat was bearing down on them. My Dad turned to look and a large cabin cruiser with nobody at the helm was heading directly for them. My Dad jumped off the stern and my dad's friend jumped from the bow. The cruiser hit them perfectly dead center (what are the chances of that). My Dad was not wearing a life jacket having taken it off after arrival. My Dad credits his friend for saving his life as he thinks he was mere seconds from going under for keeps.

The Coast guard wrote the boat up for gross negligence and cited them for whatever they could. Salvage managed to get my boat upright and to the dock but it is destroyed.

I am just grateful that my Dad is still with us. Thank God!
