    That’s a 30,000 pound boat. It’s totally plausible that he hit a 110 pound person and never knew it.

    At first I blamed the operator of the boat who ran over the young lady. Now I’m inclined to look to the ski boat operator for choosing to tow a skier in this area of the bay in choppy waters. Even with a one foot chop or less it’s difficult to see much more than 100 feet or even less in front of you. It seems there’s enough blame to go around.
    So truly sorry for this young lady to leave earth in this manner. God has you in his arms.

    I'm glad to see so many people not blaming the old guy who owned the boat that hit her. As a former boat owner but nowhere near the size of this boat, 16 ft 140 HP, I can tell you it's hard to see someone floating in the water, the only part exposed is the persons head and if it's choppy or the sun is in your eyes that person is invisible. When we water skied we always went to an area where there was little or no traffic and stayed as far away as possible from any boats that came by.

    I think Miami is a hub for incompetent boaters. I watch many videos on the area. It's appalling. I'm surprised there aren't more tragedies of similar nature. I want to blame the wake boarders in a high access/traffic area. They must be suffering at this time, as well. My condolences to the family and loving friends of Ella's; a beautiful ballet dancer. My heart goes out to the owner of the boat, as well. He must be devastated. I pray everyone is comforted, dear Lord. Amen

    It appears that a combination of choppy water, bright light, and heavy watercraft traffic could make for a very serious (deadly)
    event. Out here in the Pacific Northwest, even on our lakes a downed skier/boarder is extremely hard to spot-even with a flagger , calm waters, and low boat traffic. This horrible event sounds like it was a deadly decision to be the tiniest object in the water that day. Such sorrows for her, the family, the community, and even the causing (alleged) boat pilot. peace
