those things seem surprisingly dangerous considering how slowly they travel. there have been a bunch of fatal incidents over the years.

Stone County sheriff reports 8 fatalities after duck boat capsizes on Table Rock Lake

NEAR BRANSON, Mo. -- The Stone County Sheriff confirms eight fatalities involved in a duck boat capsizing on Table Rock Lake Thursday.

Emergency crews responded to the incident shortly after 7 p.m. after a severe line of thunderstorms rolled through the area.

Sheriff Doug Rader reports the boat had 31 people on board. He tells KY3 News four of those have been transported to a hospital. Some of the 31 on board include children. Divers are on the scene searching for more possible victims. The sheriff says he does not know how many on the boat are missing. The sheriff is asking for any family missing someone to go to Branson City Hall. It remains a rescue and recovery mission.

Investigators say the boat ended up sinking in the lake. It remains in the water. Boaters and staff from the nearby Branson Belle rescued several.

Crews have set up a staging area near the Showboat Branson Belle. However, we can confirm the incident has nothing to do with the Belle. Firefighters ask you to stay away from State Park Marina, the Branson Belle, Boat Dock Road, Highway 176 in the block of 7600 Cougar Trail Road, and Orchard Lane.

Stay tuned for more updates.

Other than dying in a boating accident, Table Rock Lake is pretty nice.

The storm really did come out of nowhere too. There was significant wind and hail damage in that front.

My LIVED EXPERIENCE with that particular storm was that it came in pretty fast for a storm around these parts. I'm sure boat captains should be held to a higher standard than the average joe blow but BIG METEOROLOGY can blow itself. They usually exaggerate storm conditions when we'll actually just get a sprinkle. So stop crying wolf and get shit right, otherwise we won't listen to you when real storms do come around.

This is a boomer take which checks out since you were in Branson last night.

The reality is that real time meteorology is pretty good and a look at the radar before launching the duck would have probably been enough to scrap this tour.
