"...was transported to Lakes Region General Hospital after being tossed upward after the boat she was a passenger in, operated by 43-year-old Alan Boucher, of 64 Ninth District Road, Somers, Conn.,
hit a wave." [And broke her back]
"John Kolkoski, 42, of 101 Adams Ave., Saugus, Mass., was traveling in a northerly direction on Lake Winnipesaukee toward Barton’s Motel when the vessel he was operating
hit a wave." [Four-year-old passenger injured]
I recall reading last year of a boater who broke
his back after
hitting a wave.
Yesterday, the tenant next door was repairing a gauge under the dash when his boat was
hit by a wave, bonking
his head.
I don't know why the newspapers can't state "hit by
a over-sized boat wake".
I'd name the oversized boat that caused the next door tenant grief, but I don't know if the Moderator would allow it.
