How much alcohol do you have to drink to put yourself into an actual coma?!?
Seattle PI: A Bellingham woman consumed so much alcohol on a boat during Saturday's Seafair festival that she went into a coma and more than 130 people were cited for alcohol offenses over the last two days, a Washington State Patrol spokesman said.

Our video cameras at Seafair were following the leader in Heat 1B, so the video we have of the U9 flip in Heat 1B is mostly the splash and aftermath.
Fortunately, Hydro Photographer Extraordinaire Chris Denslow was right on the spot. Chris sent us a sequence of photos that we've assembled into a slide show and video montage. Thanks Chris!

U-37 Jean Theoret said he had an engine failure in the first heat. "I had no way to control the boat," he said. That caused him to run into the U-10 and David Bryant.
