This is not my boat, and I don't know much about it other than it happened around Cincinnati this past Saturday. Someone said they saw the boat on the land wrapped around the tree. Word is that no one was injured.

Good park job. The trailer is almost perfectly centered between the lines!
 
I know the tree was on his port side but tree's always have the right of way.
 
Tree should have been removed from the waterway. It must be someone elses fault. Who do we sue?
 
first rule of tying up...never approach something any faster than you want to hit it
 
Going to need some mighty big tweezers to remove that splinter.
 
Any good captain would log in that incident. Butjust how that happened has me stumped.
 
Sandy he took the wrong branch of the river.
 
I guess it's true about wooden hulls needing a lot of maintenance...

You're barking up the wrong tree there! OF course, I'm going out on a limb saying so...
 
Maybe they will turn over a new leaf and get a sailbote.
 
You guys are terrible - someone logs in to plant the roots of a serious thread, and it branches off into jokes! I hardly wood have expected that. Hopefully those boaters were able to brush it off. Looks like a classic loss of situational awareness - not seeing the forest for the trees.
 
Pity the poor sap when the boat took the bow to the bough. Leaves me pining to know more about this split piercinghullity.
 
There is NO WAY I can top the other comments which had me in stiches. Just want to extend my condolences to the owner - that sucks! However, I don't feel so bad dragging my sterndrive up the boat ramp now. ;0
