Besides the obvious as discussed above, I have another possibility for consideration.

That Chris Craft has its all around light on top of the windshield and the canvas is up. I forget what the weather was like last Friday night but I can tell all from experience that boating at night looking through the windshield and with a light shining down from above is not ideal. If the visibility was bad as well, it’s even worse. Our cuddy was set up that way, I retrofitted it to a stern mounted all around and had a zipped section installed in the canvas over the helm so it’s possible to stand up and look over the windshield with the canvas up.

I’m sure the facts will come out in due time, it is amazing that no one was hurt.
