Spoken like a true powerboater. While that may make
sense to you,
sailors can generally say, "I get rolled often by
irresponsible
powerboaters, and I've never rolled anyone."
The problem is that many sailors think that all
powerboaters leaving a
wake are irresponsible just because the wake
inconveniences them in
some way, and don't even get me started on sailboats who
expect the
right-of-way while under power, or who suddenly tack in
front of a
moving powerboat and demand the right-of-way.
Yes, it must be so difficult for you to turn that wheel a
bit. Do you have limp wrists?
Fortunately most of
them seem to understand that five blasts on the air horn
is a danger
signal.
Oh brother, I've seen this type before, blasting through a
crowd of boats, air horns and all.
