I'm Mike (Long Island Sound N.Y. - North Side - Very Rocky Area) Finally, finally, I figured out a really good reason why boat operators do this. I could never for the life of me understand why no matter where I would anchor or drift, a good number of boats will buzz by me only a few short yards away as if I'm a marker buoy. snip I thought I was the only one who experienced that. db Nah....same thing here in Lake Ontario and its tributaries. I was out in the lake two weeks back, anchored with a few other boats on top of some structure that occupies maybe 3 square acres. So, we were anchored pretty close, but new arrivals were obviously being very careful while choosing a spot. We're two miles offshore (on the Rochester side), and however far it is to Canada on the other side. Absolutely NO reason for passing boats to be anywhere close. But, of course, almost all of them had to get within 100 feet of the group as they passed. I don't think the Power Squadron course would do jack **** for people like that. |
