Heather DeHart of Bothell was killed when a speedboat crashed into an anchored sailboat on Lake Washington. Apparently the motorboat, driven by a 17-year-old boy, was traveling at a high rate of speed before it struck the sailboat. DeHart was thrown from the sailboat and killed on impact when the motorboat collided with the rear end of the sailboat at about 8:45 p.m.
Several other people involved in the crash were also injured. The 17-year-old, his 16-year-old passenger and a 45-year-old man aboard the sailboat were taken to Harborview Medical Center with nonlife-threatening injuries.
Seattle police are still investigating the accident.
