Water Sport or Crime? The Bitter Fight Over Wave-Making Boats
LAND O' LAKES, Wis.—Keith Montgomery was standing on the public pier of a glacial lake here when he saw a boat cruising along the shore so slowly that he didn't think it would kick up a wake. Instead, it sent a wave barreling toward a pontoon boat tied up at a dock nearby. A man on board clung to the railing to avoid falling backward and a woman on the dock tried to stabilize the craft as it bounced from below her knees to her waist.

Delay in demolition of old Boblo dock
The former Boblo Island dock seen in Amherstburg, Ont. on June 5, 2025. (Gary Archibald/CTV News Windsor) The old Boblo Island dock in Amherstburg was scheduled to be demolished this week, but there's been no activity at the site. CTV News has learned the project is now delayed until next Wednesday. The dock once provided ferry passenger service heading to and from the former boblo island amusement park, but has since fallen into unsafe disrepair. In September 2024, the town received word that the federal Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) had secured funding to remove the dock and move forward with the tending process. The DFO owns the dock on the Detroit River along Front Road South, which has fallen into a state of disrepair and is in danger of collapsing into the river. The town has been asking the federal government since 2016 to take action to remove the structure, citing its condition and the potential safety hazard to boats and commercial shipping on the Detroit River if it collapsed into the water.

At least 10 hurt when yacht strikes dock in Hudson River, FDNY says
Several people were hurt when a yacht struck a dock in the Hudson River on Saturday, the New York City Fire Department says. It happened around 4:15 p.m. in the water near the Henry Hudson Parkway and West 125th Street. According to the FDNY, about 400 people were on board the vessel when it hit a dock. Marine units then escorted the yacht to a dock at West 125th Street, where passengers were unloaded. The FDNY says at least ten civilians suffered minor injuries and were taken to local hospitals to be treated. Police confirm there was a water rescue, but they did not provide further details. It is unknown at this time what caused the yacht to hit the dock. The investigation is ongoing. This crash comes one month after a Mexican navy training ship struck the Brooklyn Bridge, killing two sailors and injuring 19 others. That incident remains under investigation.
