Both appeared in last year's SL discussion: use of the "ignore" function can reduce exposure to facts, btw.
I recall that
SIKSUKER was quoted on that high-speed triple—which happened at night, and had the GFBL
inverted into the cottage. (It had first hit a dock to become airborne). In the discussion's follow-ups, some very gruesome details appeared.
The Parker Island tragedy was a GFBL Donzi, and involved the non-use of a lanyard by an experienced "Performance Boater".

I have two floatplane pilots in my family:
one has a incident to tell you about, regarding Lake Winnipesaukee water quality—and a certain GFBL visitor.
BTW:
In early Spring, I was driving my trademark "9-over" the 55-MPH speed-limit, when I
perceived that I was being targeted by a large vehicle needing to pass on a two-lane bridge. Thinking he surely doesn't want to pass me—with a half-dozen young passengers—I picked up my camera anyway.
Sure enough, an oversized conveyance—with an experienced driver—carrying someone else's children—decided that some rules can be ignored.
(Although we were both traveling in the same direction—
unlike boating—that's an attitude towards speed limits I can do without).
