Around 3:00, per my neighbor, a jet boat sunk right in front of Riverland Saturday afternoon. I was out and about at the time, so this is second hand info. The rescue team found it and recovered it. Pulled it out at the Riverland launch ramp.

That was my best friends boat. He hit a roller just right at about 35mph and blew the side out of it. Not a fun day, we were just getting ready to put it on the trailer for the day too. You should of come up to see it if you were curious....everyone else did.

No need to post pics it was a bad enough day, don't need the reminder. No it wasn't a light weight hull just capped the top of a roller in the wrong spot and it came apart. Even at 35mph shit can go wrong.
