Glad to hear not more serious. When I broke my ribs that was painful and remember as much as it hurts take deep breathes now and then to keep from fluid building up. Speedy recoverery. Rick

Glad everyone is basically OK ! I learned from my Mirage that trim is not the answer !! Mine only went 105 with a 28 cleaver , stock 260 , but that was enough .Get well quickly !

[YELLOWSS]

[euro scott]

ribs are a bitch too im still feeling mine from 2.5 months ago incident.

[max200]

I'm sure glad those guys are gonna be okay. I have been there done that and probably still have some fiberglass stuck in me. Its hard to get behind the wheel again after something like that. I wish them a speedy recovery physically and mentally

[paul folks]

jr started striping the boat down 2day looking for a new boat might have a new mirage built... does ne1 know how 2 get ahold of mike??

[Fish]

glad everyone was ok. Saw JR running the mirage at river ranch and the dude could definitely drive it well. Things happen quickly even to the best of drivers, good thing they were wearing vests.

[Little Jon]

Hope for a fast recovery, glad to hear that nobody lost their lifes.

[Quinten]

Godspeed to both!

[skydog]

Just got my boat back from Mike Mullins, did a great job, his # is863-581-7807, glad the guys weren't hurt worse, hope they have a speedy recovery, I didn't have any broken bones when i had my accident in Feb. but it sure is a lot of soreness involved when you get "slam dunked" see ya'll at Suwannee this weekend.

[Marko]

For what you do MAtt your fine, if you got out in some ruff stuff and came off the wrong wave the wrong way in a heavy head wind MAYBE on the river you have a better chance of rolling that bad boy over than blowing it over.

Just my 2 beans worth.................

Glad to hear they are going to be alright, hope the recovery is a speedy one.

as for blowing over in anything...tunnel boat to a 46' skater, the rule is don't look for RPM's in the trim button.

Any high performance boat reguardless of who makes it or wether it`s a tunnel, flat or V-bottom can go over.
