Now that one I'll believe was taken on a cell phone...seems like they
ended up right back where they started from...and the guy standing on
his bow pulpit? What was that about? Just what did he think he was
going to do?



Better that he should take some damage personally than allow his boat
to be hurt?

Maybe he's afraid the other boat is uninsured? One of the first rules I
learned: body parts do not belong between two boats, a boat and a dock,
a boat and a rock...he did not have a fending pole in his hand...he did
not have a bumper to sling between them...so what good is your boat to
you, except as a resale item, if you become an amputee?


I think he's the one who fell off the boat and he's trying to get back on.
