Guest, we are pleased to announce that Hydrophase Ridesteady is offering an extra $100 off for JETBOATERS.NET members on any Ridesteady for Yamaha Speed Control system purchased through March 7th, 2025. Ridesteady is a speed control system (“cruise control”) that uses GPS satellites or engine RPM to keep your boat at the set speed you choose. On twin engine boats, it will also automatically synchronize your engines.
The reported could have done some background on the story.
I doubt if there will be any attempt at salvage. The Coast Guard supervised the removal of all the hazardous fuels, liquids, materials before the towing. Boat was also sunk in 800 feet of water. Estimated salvage value, before sinking, was under $400,000.
Right about now, Malletts Bay boat owners are feeling tempted.... the ice clearly isn't the problem, this guy just needs a bigger boat 😏 Here's to open water coming soon 🍻

Damn shame that they did not have the opportunity to remove more equipment before dragging out to sea. First and foremost, we don't need to pollute the ocean any more than necessary but also, that's a lot of wasted money.
