Ok I talked to my friend. He was the angler paired with the boater( yellow skeeter) they went to make a blind left hand turn @ 60 mph and took the outside which is correct (pass on the right) and a boat (ranger) was making a right hand turn and took it to wide . Collided with the yellow skeeter on the passenger side and barrel rolled over the skeeter . The motor from the ranger hit the motor from skeeter while barrel rolling over and caused the skeeter to do a 360 onto the bank . Passenger of ranger bailed out in time driver got trapped but eventually came loose and swam to safety . My buddy was the most banged up out of the 4 involved and broke over $3000.00 in rods/reels . So the lesson learned.... Don't blow around blind corners @ 60 mph
