Sad too see it! Still cannot understand how anyone on a jet ski, barring a blackout or complete inebriation, could not see a 40 ft sailboat in their path. Perhaps the driver realized too late that he/she could not control the ski without it moving and/or was moving much faster than he/she should have been under the conditions. Charlie Nelson

Boat Damage from Jetski.jpg | | | | | | | | | | | Boat Damage from Jetski.jpg Shared with Dropbox | | | You might not see much at first but look at the twist in the solar panels. The missing support for the dinghy davit on the port side. The dinghy davit on the port side has been twisted and is destroyed, and the 1 1/4" stainless tube has been bent more than 90 degrees at the foot. The dinghy has a permanent dent and a damaged seam in the bottom. There is a damaged hydraulic backstay adjuster. Realistically, had the dinghy not been there, the jetski would have landed in the cockpit and I would likely not be hear typing this. The surveyor is estimating the damage between $15,000 - $20,000.
