Woman Injured in Boat Accident on Colorado River


We previously posted on a boating collision that occurred n the Colorado RIver where  Stefani Rhoades was seriously injured.  The Daily Bulletin reported   that Stefani Rhoades was  the girlfiend of a Mr. Beck or a Mr. Becker.  That information concerning Stefani Rhoades Colorado RIver boat accident may not be correct.

The following is taken from a recent post on TOPIX:

"It was 2:45 in the afternoon. Mrs. Rhoads is not the girlfriend of the owner of the boat, she and her husband were guests of the owner. They are not "White Trash" in fact, they are business people
who were invited to spend the weekend with a friend, and chose to do so. The newspaper should probably have talked to Mrs. Rhoads or her husband to get the facts before publishing an article on the subject. The boat Mrs. Rhoads was on was not moving, they were drifting at the time when another boat hit them."

If the boat that Stefani Rhoades was a passenger was "not moving" - - that is not under power - - then the following Inland Navigational Rules / Rules of the Road may apply:

LOOKOUT (From Rule 5)
Every vessel shall at all times maintain a proper lookout.

SAFE SPEED (From Rule 6)
All vessels must proceed at a safe speed at all times. You must go slow enough to prevent a collision no matter what the conditions.
