You know, looking at that picture a little more closely, I wouldn't be surprised if they didn't even own the boat. It's a rowboat, and they are using an old dilapadated canoe paddle. They also aren't wearing pfds. Everything screams haste. I bet the drain plug isn't even secured.

They were probably on the shore, saw a deer go though the ice, and grabbed the nearest boat they could find. Saw it had no oars, and started looking around for something to row with. Who needs a life jacket? We won't end up in the water.

They are foolish, but appear to be good hearted.
