Today a bad accident occured 2 miles offshore during a photo shoot for Powerboat Magazine. The helicopter was shooting pics and video of Page racings Skater when the helicopter got too close to the water and crashed. The Skater was piloted by Bob Teague of teague Racing Ehgines. He stopped the boat and pulled the three in, where he was able to revive 2 but one was unconcious. The Skater was so close that it took a hit to the Port bow from debris. All of our thoughts are with the families of the crews.
