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?


That's exactly why boobspit keeps his fenders on deck.......at-the-ready
