"Early this evening a boat flipped over in Chestnut Cove! It was too dark for my digital photographs to come out but so far what we have heard is that
- it was the boaters first day out with his new boat
- the boat cost was $120K
- there were 6 people on board and no one was injured
- it appears in the water that the hull may be cracked
- supposedly the boat flipped twice
- a woman on land was so agitated that she fell down a flight of stairs and broke her nose - and she is pregnant
- the Marine Patrol came just a bit ago and put a buoy on the wreck
I'll try to get some photographs in the daylight!!!
Let's hear it for boating safety!!!!!! "

I search the forum for this quote and I can't find it. I can't validate that aps made it up.
I ask my buddy on Chestnut Cove if he remember the incident. He only remembered an incident when a young man with a new boat ended up in the rocks. Unexperienced and possible uncertified driver with no knowledge of the area. The boat may have capsized and he can't recall the boat flip. If the guy was speeding he would have cleared the submerged rocks.
I binged and googled for a news article and none appeared.
