[LaughingCat]

Damaged engine hatch was the only thing visible.

Glad everyone was OK

My timing isn't as good as FF Jeff's

In this pic, what is the spray behind the boat? Do you think the turbines are still spinning?

[LaughingCat]

Fecal mist from when they crapped their pants.

[Tom A.]

Could be steam from the water hitting the hot turbines

[Ratickle]

I watched it go over. All I can say from my vantage point, dang jet skis.....

[Madpoodle]

Who actually shot the pic of it mid-flip?

[Chris]

Freeze Frame Jeff did. He flew the noon photo shoot for everyone that wanted pics, then he stayed on when the helo switched over to safety-chase. They were there at the right time.

[Madpoodle]

Ahh, I thought he was still in the helo, but that didn't look like a helo shot..

Can anyone tell me how All Jack'd Up flipped? I was in the pit and someone said that the P2 Donzi had people other than the driver and throttle man in the boat and it cut off the cat.

When I went to the ramp and they were pulling the Donzi out, Bob Teague was ****ed and gave them an ear full.

Here's my first pic.

Spray from the accident. You can still see the aeration in the water from their turn. Here's a couple of seconds later the boat is still spinning (slowly, but still spinning)

I'm sorry, it's sometimes hard to tell if someones being sarcastic but you didn't put a in your post, so something tells me that you are serious about jet-skis getting in the way........

The jet ski story was floating around Sunday...

[Ratickle]

The couse was not closed for a testing period so everyone out had to watch for private boats.

The first lap he ran deep to the normal area of the turn, lots of traffic in the way.

The second lap he ran just past the cruise ship dock, and turned in front of the Westin. On the way back out at the end of his turn he had to actually go between skiis in a row heading out across the channel.

On the third lap he cut just a bit shorter than that, then about two-thirds through the turn there were skiis heading out on the far side of the channel so it looked as if he had to cut sharper yet and almost a slow-motion roll over.

That's from my viewpoint looking out.

Here's Mikey to the rescue......

The AquaMania thread on OSO is insane. Every time it get civil and you think it will die, someone pours gas on the fire. It's like a Jerry Springer episode where no one hears the director yelling "Cut!"

19,700+ hits. That thread is putting OSO back on the map!

The funny part is I didn't even know it was going on. I only heard about it from the thread here on SO... I ventured off to OSO and read it start to finish and now I'm left with a big headache, stiff kneck and my eyes hurt....

Total waste of my time and energy.....
