Saturday, August 30, 2025, aprox 1:20-pm; two woman passengers, ages 53, 23 and 22, mother and daughters ... http://www.maine.gov/ifw/news-events...ml?id=13261727 ..... none wearing a pfd were killed by drowning and impact when riding as passengers in a 2024 Sea-Doo Switch when the bow of the boat went under water about 180' from shore on Flagstaff Lake in Eustis, Maine.

September 5, 2025 video .... Pontoon boat was under recall due to instability when passenger weight isn't distributed evenly ..... http://www.wgme.com/news/local/ponto...flagstaff-lake

It does not say .... www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOMECtc1zwY ..... if this was the 18' or the 21' Sea-Doo Switch?

Like WHO KNEW its important to balance a boat with passenger weight distribution, especially a small boat like a 12' row boat, 16' motorboat or a 18'/21' Sea-Doo Switch with seven people onboard?
