So I saw on the news last night that there was a boat that had capsized at Strawberry yesterday. They said all 3 people were rescued after the boat was overcome with water.
Was this any of our BFT brothers? If so, glad to see that you made it out ok.

Posted: 11:56 AM- Wasatch County search and rescue crews recovered three people whose boat capsized at Strawberry Reservoir this morning.
Aside from being cold and wet, Nathan Van Derkinden, 31, of West Jordan, and 36-year-old Chris and Austin Kinder, 9, both of Kearns, were unharmed, according to the Wasatch County Sheriff's Office.
One in the group called 911 after their boat was overrun with water and capsized after 7 a.m., when temperatures outside loomed about 15 degrees, the sheriff's office stated. About an hour later, crews used two rescue boats and wave runners to reach the trio, who were standing on the capsized boat.
The three were treated by medics at the Strawberry Marina and released, the sheriff's office said.

Just curious. It seems like the weather was nice, so did their boat be overcome with water. A forgot plug maybe.

I was wondering the same thing, the lake was like glass in the morning.
