Yikes. Boat overload

16 ft. jon boat=3 adults, 5 kids, coolers, tents, chairs, clothes & fishing equipment. Riding low in water and going down the edge of the swollen Missouri River. The had been camping. Yikes. Also running an unmarked trotline. Water Patrol would probably have gotten writers cramp if theyhad saw them. Doubtful enough life jackets for everyone. They made it to the ramp safely.

some people don't want to make a couple safe trips instead one heckuva dangerous trip.
Some don't even think about it.
Good to post to create awareness.
