You ought to get out and about a bit more. It might help remove or at
least
diminish some of your prejudices.

I traveled and lived aboard a small sailboat for eight years and visited
many places, ranging from Canada to Bermuda to Cuba to The Islands. Of
course I met many people, and most were just regular folks. However there
were, from time to time, a few "offenders."

My experience was that, at least in the cruising community (which is what
this group is about), there were at least as many sailboat jerks as
powerboat jerks. Often the sailboat jerks were more offensive, since they
worked under the assumption that sailboat people were automatically
smarter.

Sailboaters aren't automatically smarter??
