    Default Way too common..... another boating accident


    This is past getting out of hand. We need more water Marine Police. It seems like this is getting to be an almost weekly thing....
    Prayers sent for the family.

    Martin may be the worst one We get bambozzled by ametuer boaters. They can't even back their boats in. ��

    That vessel operators license sure doesn’t seem to be helping things. There was another fatality this weekend down your way if what I read was accurate

    So sad to hear of this. But that is one lake that every time I have been on it in warm weather that I have seen at least 1 state trooper patrolling if not 3-4 ! But man they going to have to do something with all this summer time pleasure crafters ! I’m surprised that it don’t happen much more often!

    Guys be careful!. There's one on the coosa river to. The economy is strong and more people on the water = more accidents. A week before the first holiday, I seen more boats on wedowee that I ever have. I knew it was going to be a wild summer.

    I may get ragged on but I believe that before someone gets a boat operators license they need to take a certified boaters course which would include time on the water as well as in the classroom the test they have now does nothing as far as actual operation of a boat I'm my opinion
