Bill to ban "teak surfing" introduced in WA State
"Fred Dehl" wrote in message ... wrote in ups.com: Right now, if a cop sees some 16 year old kid running a boat while some 14 or 15 year old is teak surfing... Here's hoping you never answer a knock on your door to learn that a kid or a grandkid was killed while doing something others would consider "stupid". Why would I permit unsupervised minors to operate a boat? A 16 year old can go drive the car without an adult in it. Most of the teak surfing deaths are probably the 18-30's. And I and my friends got to drive the boats with out adults aboard 45-50 years ago, and few did not survive the experience. First fatal accident I saw, was a 25 year old drunk, that left the dock full throttle in a Vee drive and ran over a couple in a small fishing boat while still in the 5 mph zone. |
