I think if I had that much money tied up in a boat I'd have been a bit more careful with GPS, depth sounders and more. Especially at night and in a lake that has so many islands and rocks.
Look at the photo of the boat again - they had a Raymarine Radar on board. So my thought is that there should be no excuse for this but the question arises what were they really doing when they went aground????? A little bit of distraction maybe?
