Well, just got back in from the lake. *Came back in to the slip at
sundown, and since our slip is on the edge of the docks with a nice
view, we just sat there a while enjoying the view and water.

After about 40 minutes, I see a boat headed inward to the marina...
with nothing to show but the white anchor light. *No red or green
markers up front. *I walked aft and waited.

The guys are in a center console, 20+ footer, T-top, nice boat. *After
he's come down off plane at the no wakes and has idled up behind me, I
holler,"Hey! *Do you know your red and green bow markers are out?"

Silence, then a "Huh?"

I repeat my statement. *Then comes back, "Yeah, I know. *We just went
out for a little while."

Me: "Just wanted to make sure you know, so you can fix them!"

Silence. *Idiots.


Another reason Canada now has MANDATORY Licensing for Boaters, and
Cops on the water to enforce it. Idiots like you witnessed, are an
accident waiting to happen.
