Boat traffic!!!

That's terrible. I feel for the guy. I sure hope he had insurance.
 
ummm that really sucks. I wonder if it jack knifed or what caused this mess...
 
Hopefully he also had the proper permits!

My guess would be that it fell off the trailer that is also "on the highway'.

bet it used the on-ramp
 
I've towed a 26 foot pocket cruiser with a single, small gasoline engine and it was at the weight limit (GCVW) for a Ford F350. I cannot imagine that this guy with a 35 footer was not substantially overloaded and the boat decided to tow the pickup which never goes well.

Yeah. The last one struck me as really funny. He was probably on his way to the afternoon shift at OWS when he had to turn around.

New England has never been known for patience or manners.
 
That does not look like a 35' boat to me, but if it is, the truck and trailer are way to small!
 
spj, I agree.
The one picture were it shows its across two lanes leads me to believe its 24' to 26' in length.
 
A lifted, short wheel base, half ton truck is not the right choice for that boat.

A panic stop could overwhelm that truck in a hurry.
 
It looks like a Chris Craft 281 Catalina.
