There has been a lot of discussion about the proper way of operating a
dinghy in the Florida Keys, some of which has been well intentioned
but somewhat misinformed. *There is really only one proper technique
in the Keys, and those who have actually cruised there will recognize
it immediately. *A picture is worth a thousand words:

Yes, the "quick stop" manuever could be hazardous. *Of course the
rationale for standing up is that you can see what's ahead. *The water
in most of the Keys is crystal clear and obstructions are easily
spotted if you have a little altitude.

I still fail to see how it is safer than simply sitting in the
inflatable.

JimH's motive here is to be ****ty to those that have more than him.
He's always done that, because he has this huge problem with his
deflated ego, that's why he mentions his son so much.
