How terrible ! He will be in my prayers.

That's a terrible story. How can a powerboat not see a dinghy? Massive negligence is the only answer (quite often booze-fuelled).

Just happened to someone guy a few days before. Wonder if it was the same person driving the boat?

Wow, that's a bad one. Thoughts, prayers, and best wishes for a complete recovery.

Bad things can happen so quickly, and through no fault of our own. I note that there is a fundraising page to help cover the cost of the $25K medevac. All of us should consider buying medevac coverage, which I do. Ours is somewhere around $300 or $350 per year for the two of us.

In other reports the daugther says the speed was 10 to 15 knots, but equated that to about 30 mph. I think the 30 mph comment was then picked up by other new casts - 15 knots is about 17 mph.
If your dinghy was hit by a 30 mph speedboat, pretty sure that would be it. Not to mention 30 mph in an anchorage is almost murder.
However we know very little about this terrible accident. Hope it works out OK. Wonder what happened to the speedboat driver, the occupants noticed they were dragging the tender and person, they must of then stopped and taken him to shore?
