Last year I was boarded for the first time in the past 25 years. I think in the
early part of the season, the odds are greater that you will be boarded because
there aren't as many other recreational boats on the water. Also, a powerboater
will leave the dock for a "quick" spin around the harbor. A sailboater is less
likely to do this because of the time and effort involved.
