Looks like the sheriff's dept up in Tahoe scored a new boat.

They'll have a tougher time sinking that one...

I'd be interested in hearing the cause of the sinking of the original. Thru-hull/petcock let go, most likely. Happens a lot in salt water; haven't heard of it that much in fresh.

For sure. It went down in May, not exactly awful weather up there then.

Hmmm... It it wasn't Johnny Law's boat that sunk, I'd be crying "suspicious"....

Interesting that the new purchase is funded by Insurance Companies and Drug Barons. Two equally despicable lots...
