Let's all be careful and watch out for the other guy. Found this in the Seattle Times. Local TV news said it was a Wakeboarding type boat and a Sea Ray Runabout. TV showed front of both boats damaged. Let's be careful, especially when driving at night.

Girl killed in boat accident

The King County Medical Examiner's Office has identified the 13-year-old girl who died Tuesday during a boating accident on Lake Washington.

A ski boat carrying Benson, four other children and an adult collided with another vessel near Magnuson Park just before 10:30 p.m., Seattle police said. A 6-year-old boy riding with Benson on the bow of the boat was taken to Harborview Medical Center; his condition is unknown. A woman riding in the second boat received less-serious injuries, police said.

Perhaps it's also somewhat of a testament to why it's not usually such a great idea to be out on the water after dark... Bad stuff.

This one happened in broad daylight and could very easily had the same if not worse results. ALWAYS be on the lookout for idiot drivers. My condolences to the family of the girl.
