Hello everyone, Last night, sept 17, I was fishing the south side of montauk light. I was fishing in a 21.5 FT Seaswirl Striper. At approximately 11 PM, I was drifting, and fishing, and my navigation lights were on. I was struck broadside by a larger boat that was under full power, up on a plane.

Several witnesses came to help, but the boat who hit me turned off his lights and left the scene. I did not get a good look at the boat that hit me. One witness described the boat as approximately a 26-28 White Center Console, very new looking, with twin Yamaha outboards.

My friend and I were not hurt, as we jumped out of the boat at impact. My boat however, is totaled.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, if you have ANY information on what happened, or have seen a boat remotely similar to the description with front end damage, please message me. My boat, and much of my gear is a total loss.

ALSO PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD IF YOU CAN!!!

Scumbags! Hope they are caught. Glad that you and your friend are ok.

no insurance. Thankfully we are still alive. I was screaming from the water and I saw him just drive away. Sickening

No other reason for that scumbag to leave unless he was guilty of something other than running you over. Shared on FB as well.

That's crazy. Thank God you are alright. Sorry about your boat. Just horrible.
