Caution...second Drift boat inside of a week has capsized pulling into the Policemans flats launch. First went over the boulders this passed weekend the second tonight was much worse. Having missed the launch due to strong current they got caught up in some fallen trees downstream and capsized...everyone is fine but they lost all there gear, could've been worse!! Praise...I need to give a big shout out to the Calgary Fire Department, Paramedics, RCMP and the guys who operate the River Rescue boat who all got there crazy fast...the Rescue Boat with about half an hour of light left took off downstream to try and salvage the Drift Boat and gear if they could find any...well done boys!!!:sHa_shakeshout:

Scary, glad to hear everyone made it out safe and sound.

With what's left of the boulders at the Policemans launch, jutting out into the current, getting a driftboat into the launch would be very difficult.

Be safe out there folks.
