Boating accident on the Medway

[alandalus11]

I put Driver NOT skipper IE speedboat driver

I know you did. Read my posting. I didn't say anything about skipper, so I haven't got a clue what you are on about. This is a prime example of jumping to the wrong conclusion without having the facts at hand. In your mind it was a speedboat, but there was nothing in the press reports to say what type of boats were involved. Again you have jumped to the wrong conclusion and assumed a speedboat was involved. I have seen sailboats in the crouch and medway with 25 hp outboards doing in the region of 15 knots so who is to say it wasn't a sailboat.

I don't think there are many MacGregors still around. I haven't seen one for years.

Not sure if the boats we saw were Macgregors but the ones we saw on the medway and on the crouch certainly did move. The one we saw on the crouoch certainly did surprise a couple of motorboats when it tore past them.

He’d have done well to get under Rochester Bridge, particularly as this happened around HW.

Well according the the many Press and TV reports, it probably made the A&E plus Helicopter crews glad of the work, as apparently all the NHS are under used at thge mo, with the exception of the Virus Crews

So all and any cries of taking Medics etc away from Front Line Duities involving the Virus must be false news, eh ?

it is still raining outside.

....and a very good time to pop to the supermarket, queuing in the rain doesn't seem too popular!
