    This is what it looks like when a commercial type flat looses control and hits an aluminum boat. The commercial boat only had a little scratch.

    So the commercial type boat is like the SUV of the water?

    All kidding aside, just looking at the picture makes my knee start shaking. I’m guessing the commercial boat had commercial insurance?

    Just tell them the WI opener is in two weeks, they never get it repaired in time and you want a new Tyee….then settle for a new Pro V.

    it seems obvious to me…. the irresistable force meets the immovable mountain!…. I bet good ol mountain man was playing chicken again… but this time the other guy didnt budge!….
    havent you learned the laws of right of way?
    Bigger boat has right of way….
    Old beatup boat has right of way…
    and a crazy man in either of these… just get out of there ASAP!!!
