John Doland destroyed the Boat

"John Doland destroyed the Boat" is the legend and hymn that tells the tale of that fateful day of Emerald Bay when John Doland "destroyed" the McGreggor with other 3rd years in it. This of course is the truth twisted. John was not in control of the motor-boat and the other boat did not sink. Scotty Curran was controlling the motor-boat and crashed into the other motor-boats engine. Thomas Maggi stood up and started singing "John Doland Destroyed the boat!" John had already been teased at Leadership, so this really pissed him off. John went to the seniors for help, yet was turned down numerous times until points were docked for singing the myth.

To this day, the song is still sung at campfires and troop activities.
