Does anyone know a guy from nanaimo who has a silver willies drift boat? They were drifting today and I launched at stolts as did he and his buddy. I talked to them and they said they were pulling out at Sandy. I told them that the lock was screwed. So I last saw them at bible camp and figured they had pulled out at Sandy. I was fishing the run just above where leaning fur used to be and their boat came by rolling along the bottom of the river and I knew right away they had flipped it. Called the fire and rescue right away and went to vimy and pulled out and redrifted from just below sandy and didn't see them. The boat was absolutely demolished and last i saw it. it was still going past vimy. Aparently the guys tried to go down the right side just above Holt creek where there was a tree all the way across. They got pinned and then rolled under the tree and got sucked under. Lucky for them they were wearing life jackets . The good news is the two guys are alright. Water can get tricky out there sometimes and especially in high water so everyone should be extra careful. Would really hate to be fishin out a corpse[V]. There are really no other super tricky spots on the flow. The log jam at washout is gonna get tricky but in that case you could pull your boat around it.
