My first thought was a cop boat? And I was wondering how that could have happened. Launched off the pier starsky and hutch style.

http://www.therecord.com/news/...-poleThis one states "hydro pole" - I wonder if they mean fire hydrant?EDIT: Nope, it's a power line pole (which is right in front of that Vibe): http://www.google.com/images?q...h=492

They mean hydro pole. Those are the poles that have the electrical wires. We call it hydro up here. As if if the power goes out, I'd say "My hydro's out."
