    Best of luck with this investigation! Here in the North Dallas area, we are approaching the 29th anniversary of the unsolved disfigurement of Stephanie Booker by a hit-and-run speed boater on Lake Lewisville (June 17, 1995).

      @@TheSaturnV I think she meant you should ski in the river or intercoastal waters here in Florida. It's hard to see someone in those rough waters. That was not smart. I agree with you on flag. What are they going to do fly a drone above the skier? I have lived around boats and in Florida all my life and I have never seen a ski flag. I use them when I dive but even that really doesn't stop a boat in the ocean. It's hard to see.

    I suspect an Auto pilot , nobody watching if the boat was tracking straight with no response after impact .
    Boaters know other boats like theirs , do the family a favor and let’s ask all 4 white motor center console owners if they were there .
    A dealer could also name them too I bet .
    Keep up the announcements.

    Why the reward? They have the guy responsible already. The "Boat Master" that was pulling the skier without flags, a spotter, or buoys, and not paying attention to traffic on the water. I'm sure that the boat that struck the girl didn't do it on purpose. A certain amount of risk is accepted by anyone that ventures out on the water.

      EXACTLY... both possibilities I've raised elsewhere. Some boats/aircraft, etc., you may not be able to see anything within 10 seconds of impact, for example. You may only be able to see forward clearance 10 or MORE seconds ahead.
      Think of a massive ship, for exaggeration. Unless they have forward-facing cameras in the bow, THEY may not be able to see anything small less than a MINUTE or two ahead, depending on speed.

    what i think most likely was a accident. now turned into something much more serious. now i will say this is that boat was as big as they making it. and if he was close to the jet skies they may not have known they ran over her. not making excuses for the boater and it sure is a great lose of a young woman. and these jet skis needs to have some kind of flag or something on them. because most think they own the water. sorry getting off topic. so sorry for the lose of this young woman.

    Just think that person that owned the boat probably thought they hit a log or something and heard a loud thud then when they got home looked at the boat for damage and really didn't think much about it, later that night relaxing in front of the TV a news report comes on telling of the girl hit by a boat, The guy thinks damn that's a shame, and as the reporter shows the spot and the time of day, the boater says to himself , Thats funny that looks like the same area I was in and it was about that time of day too ! Then it hits him, OH my god ! I think it was me that killed that girl!

      She was in the ocean. Go watch the other news report. No one saw her in 2 to 3 foot swells. She was behind a huge speed boat, not a ski boat (though you can technically ski behind most boats). These reports are not actually showing the area or sea conditions at the time of the accident.

    Hi, May I share the most important news you will ever hear in your entire life? God the Father sent His holy Son Jesus Christ(Y'shua Ha' Mashiach) from heaven to earth, to be born of a virgin. He grew up and died on the cross for our sins. He was put into a tomb for 3 days, and then Abba Father raised Jesus to life and He appeared to people and went back to Heaven. We must all sincerely receive Jesus to be a true child of God. It says in John 1:12 "But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name." Will you genuinely believe on Christ Jesus and truly receive Him today, before it is too late?

      @@kurteckhardt7327 They may not have even known they hit anything as the size of the boat, they would not have even felt the hit. Water skiing is dangerous and people do stupid things like ski in front of an oncoming boat. There are laws in place on how you overtake and pass an oncoming boat, obviously the driver of the boat pulling her did not do everything right as well. Larger boats cannot see directly in front of them and could be a hundred foot blind spot. Not saying either side was at fault, but there is more to the story than being told.
