L10. Upside Down ???

Long Pond, Clapham Common view map

The opinion of the M.B.C.I.D. Model Boat Crash Investigation Department.
Is while accelerating with the waves and bouncing quite a bit, the boat operator opened the throttle hard, the resulting torgue twisted the boat sharply and flipped it upside down.
Luckily the camera operator BEC was quick enough to get a shot of the action.
The reason the stern is so low under the surface is the prop is still under power and pushing it down very hard.

Canon PowerShot G6
1/160s f/4.0 at 28.8mm full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

I think you should fire the camera operator and reward the captain. Isn't that how it works!

Excellent documentation (written and graphic). The MBCID seems to be thorough in its investigation and forthright in delivering its opinion.
