I take it this is not a joke. *If not............you need to take boating safety course before you head back out on the water again. *Based on your question you should not be on the water until you take and pass the course.. You may also want to purchase and read the latest edition of Chapman. http://www.amazon.com/Chapman-Piloti...Illustrations/... Do not take boating safety so lightly...........we do not want to read about you being the cause of the death or injury of your passengers or other boaters on the water. Oh, STFU. |
