Maybe, it’s just me.
Oh for pity's sake! 40 people have died in 19 years. I guarantee you that more than that have died in skiing accidents, accidental drownings, 4 wheeler accidents or just about anything in that time frame. That is minimal.

Two incidents in what, 40 years of these things driving around different places all over the country, every day, carrying hundreds of people?

Most incidents were caused by poor maintenance (Lake Hamilton) On road they have had axles break and cause crashes and have have accidents in city traffic.

And I would guess the boats have served hundreds of thousands, if not into the millions of people.

Yeah, I haven't seen much to suggest that duck boats are inherently dangerous in any of this. As others have mentioned, there are hundreds of these things in use around the world, and incidents are really pretty rare.

If you count all of the World War II casualties aboard Duck Boats, the mortality rate skyrockets.

The smoking gun is going to come from the statements made, if any from the Capt and the people responsible for ,making the call for entering the lake or canceling service due to inclement weather. This is not the first time a duck boat has been in a thunderstorm just the worst.

If the Duck Boats knew that the storm was preceded by a squall of 60MPH winds and allowed the boats on the water then that person should see jail time. If it was company policy to enter the lake even though they were in the window of a wind advisory and thunderstorm warning then send Pattinson there too.

If they had 17 ducks they could name one after each.

I'd still like to know how long before the TS warning was issued at 6:30 did the thing enter the water. Other than some guy saying he thinks he saw it heading towards the lake shortly before 7:00, it hasn't been reported.

I have not seen a time but I feel it would have been close. Anyone recall how long the trip takes on water?

CNN

The area around Branson was placed under a severe thunderstorm warning shortly after 6:30 p.m. (7:30 p.m. ET), about half an hour before the boat sank.
