Searay has been doing this aquapaloosa raft up for a while, the problem is when the Searay owners try to do this without adult supervision. The area of the incident was the backside of Fire Island Inlet and although it is somewhat protected it is subjected to quite a bit of boat traffic as well as a ripping tide. I heard they had three anchors deployed.
Don't lend a hand to raise a flag aboard a ship of fools!
No offense meant Randall, owning a bubble boat doesn't necessarily make you a bubble boater. I know a few of those Searay people in that video. Very nice people but not exactly old salts. There is a bit of snobbery that goes on with that particular crowd of boaters so it's amusing watching them make every mistake possible in a marine environment. Having it posted on the net for the world to comment on is priceless.
If anyone of them had a knife there would have been blood.

Nice. I really enjoyed that circus. There "appeared" to be one guy with at least enough snap to get outta that insurance nightmare in the making....survival instinct. "screw the rest of you and your boats, I'm gone" lol.
The only thing missing was some guy falling of his boat, that would have made the video complete. The people trying to swim for it, are REAL lucky they didn't earn a Darwin Award.
