Haha that boats not that big. I was thinking cruise ship big or river gorge destroyer big? That's a large dingy, coming soon to chickamauga speed limits, stop lights and traffic cops

Why so skeptical of this boats wake?

I myself had injury from it... others also have had much worse injuries than mine as has been mentioned in this thread... Property damage has occurred by at least a couple of people but I suspect many more that do not report on this forum have also had damage. I personally know a guy with a huge yacht who also had minor damage inside his boat due to the wake.

You evidently have not seen the boat or been in its wake.

You seem to find it amusing this is happening... Not sure I understand where you are coming from other than you wish to stir up controversy for no reason.
 
I cruised through Island Cove Marina today and it was in the same spot.

It is docked in a big covered slip near where Island cove has a ramp to put in /take out boats.

I appears the the name is Mizz Rachel III

Here is a little more info that I dug up if anybody is interested.

A link with some registration info:

It appears to be registered to RMI Holding Corporation in Cleveland, TN

The link below shows Jim Collins as the owner and "Choice MD" as the name the corporation is using.

All that is public information readily available on the internet.

Coming from the guy who said a bass boat wake about drowned your daughter? You sir can't be taken serious at this point.
 
I have to agree with GAfisherman... Emorolleyes lmk25.... The river gorge explorer you speak of is a twin hull boat (catamaran), built for speed, and has a wake compareable to that of a normal ski boat emolaugh. Does anyone have a video of this big gray speed boat cruising?
 
I was personally injured in an incident with this boat. TWRA Came to our house last week and took a statement. However, unless they catch him in action there is nothing they can do. The officer told us it was a civil matter. I have an appt with a spine specialist Wed. My back is broken and my tail bone cracked. I have been on bedrest and having to use a walker to even get around inside my house.
I would appreciate any information anyone can send me from anyone with any information on the owner. Also, anyone else who has damages.
Please email me at pinguinn@aol.com or call me at 423-645-7850

I saw him late Sunday afternoon near the Highway 60 bridge. He was cruising slowly through the group of boats fishing the piers. Maybe he had a stern "talking to" from TWRA?

Just in case you have not realized it yet. It is 9 ft longer then the river gorge explorer. So you statement is false. This boat is also faster the the river gorge explorer.

I was at the 60 bridge on Sunday when he came by on one of his trips through. I saw him coming full speed at us and I jumped off my front deck and was already back in my seat about to start the big motor to try to escape. My trolling motor still down. THANKFULLY, he backed it down to nearly nothing as he went under the bridge. I was out by the main river channel bridge pier I would have been toast if he hadn't slowed down. The thing that was going through my mind was "If he sinks my boat and I live I am going to sink his." LOL
 
I have just spoken with Officer Christie Twilla with TWRA. She told me that there is only one other person besides myself that has called to report these incidents.
Please call her with any information you have on this boat that is causing so much damage. Hopefully enough people will report him and something will be done to stop it before someone is killed.
Her number is 423-693-6813

Thanks!

For all those reading this thread that don't get a notification that a new post was made, the troll, lmk25 posted and then deleted that all the crybabies that were swamped by the boat in question should confront the owner of said boat in person as he said he would do. He claims he has a picture of a bass boat on plane that passed him at arms length and scared hid daughter so bad she won't fish any more.

Another member asked him to post said picture, yet he hasn't or more likely can't post something he doesn't have. I really doubt he would confront the owner of the grey yacht either.

Bass boat wake at wot is almost non. That is because it is on plain. Not much boat in the water. Mid throttle is where they make the biggest wake. So if a bass boat passes me I prefer wot or creeping. Now this bruiser is a different story. You are not going to get that 100k lbs. Up on plain. Even with its 4000 hp. So the wake keeps getting bigger the faster you go. How are you going to confront the guy anyway. I mean he is running 58 mph down the river in a 74ft yatch. Alot of boats can't catch him. And if you could are you really ignore enough to pull you 16-20 something foot boat out in front of him. I mean if you are I am sure you will do us all a favor because maybe that will make Twra do something about him. But you are going to die for the cause.
 
everyone that's had dealing with the boats wake needs to call the number that the gentleman provided earlier and report til they have to do something
 
JUST WHEN YOU THINK IT'S GETTING BETTER.......Island Cove guy said this goober has a 100 footer coming.
 
Got to see it in person Saturday evening coming down river just outside of ghopper,,,,,he wasn't wot but even at a slower speed those were Big Rollers coming from him,,,we just rode them out at idle,,,can't imagine them at speed and would hate to think about hitting them at speed without knowing he'd just went by
