OSOYOOS— An eyewitness to a “horrific” boating crash in Osoyoos, on Saturday night describes a boat T-boning another at high speed before launching into the air and disappearing into the lake.
Carmen Martins was sitting near the beach on Osoyoos Lake around 7:15 p.m. Saturday night (May 8th) when she saw the collision between an aluminum fishing boat carrying three young men and a red boat.
“The three boys went into the boat and they were just going across the lake peacefully and all of a sudden… a red boat came from Haynes Point — like, across — it came really fast and it hit the top part of the grey boat and it went flying, and it went down. Martins said both boats quickly sank following the collision. The two occupants of the red boat are still missing.
