I read everyone was OK. Chris Flint grabbed onto a navigational buoy and waited for help. There is some talk that the top cap separated from the hull.

He'd still be fishing if it was a Lund

my thoughts were exactly the same, in the same order.....

It's no wonder that the Lund took on so much water.  The guy forgot to put the plug in!  :eyebrows:

Glad they got out unscathed. The Great Lakes are no place for bass boats. Only takes one wave over the side or back to fill it up. No amount of pumps will get all that water out before the next one comes over.

Yikes!!!  I can see a big wave doing that.  Up there the waves get big!!!  Glad everyone is ok.

carolina skiffs are hard to sink too

i read the story today from the guys and it sounded pretty sketchy.....  basically involved a dead cell phone, one with 10% battery, watching a party boat go by that didn't see them to help, and clinging to a shipping buoy waiting for rescue

in other words, your worst nightmare....

And that's why a marine radio is a good idea. A direct line to TowboatUS and the USCG.
