And then there is the incident during the "poor boy's fishin'
tournament" where the pack of go-fast bass boats blew through 2
anchorage's "no wake zone", 1 manatee zone, and a fuel dock area, and an
"idle speed only" while tossing impressive rooster tails. Once they
cleared the bridge, the lead boat encountered the wake of a large
vessel, went airborne, and ejected the passenger, whom was then run over
by the following boat. He lost his arm to a prop.
USCG to the rescue with a chopper and boat. And, all of it un-necessary.
Now, who should pay the bill on that one? The boater, the tournament, or
you and I?

Hey, we've got a new contributor to this newsgroup who took his 16'
Bayliner out into 8' waves on Lake Erie because he didn't want to be
late to a party his girlfriend was having.

Stupidity isn't limited to your part of the waterways.
