Clinton Lake - A gust flips a sailboat — one swims for shore, two hold onto the hullSailboat/2026/—/Capsize

High winds gusting near 38 mph capsized a sailboat carrying three adults on Clinton Lake, close to the dam tower west of Lawrence, Kansas, in 2026. One person swam to shore while the other two stayed with the upturned hull until a county fire crew reached them. All three were treated for cold exposure and none were hospitalised.
