Here's the story from another site:

Anderson resident John Montgomery had his new boat on Hartwell Lake Thursday afternoon when things took an unexpected turn.

The 42-foot speedboat ended its journey in a grove of trees with its stern on the ground and its keel split down the middle by a tree that cut through the bottom of the boat.

Mr. Montgomery made a turn in the boat that caught him and his passenger off guard as they traveled near the Asbury Park boat ramp off Centerville Road. The sudden turn threw Mr. Montgomery and his passenger into the lake.
But the boat kept going, state Department of Natural Resources spokesman Lt. Robert McCullough said.

"The boat just shot up on the bank," he said. "The tree cut it down to the windshield. It almost cut the boat in half."
No one was seriously injured, the wildlife officer said. He said Mr. Montgomery was issued a ticket for negligent operations.

Lt. McCullough said Mr. Montgomery had the boat about five days and still was trying to learn how to use it . The boat’s kill switch, which should be hooked up upon launch, was not turned on that afternoon. If on, the switch would have cut off the boat’s motor when its passengers were thrown out.

Ha Scott;
I’m glad you posted the article I was a bit concerned posting pictures with out knowing if any one got killed in this accident. I’m glad no one got injured but it looks like his guy had more Dollars then Cense. I whish these guys new something about boats before they buy one that goes 100 + MPH. Maybe the insurance co. can find a way not to pay the claim for the boat damages and not insure these guys in the future. That would slow down some of those RPM’s. I know must guys like to open up there boats every once in a while but this sound like show boating in front of the ramp to empress the crowd putting in their bass boats for a fun day on the lake.
