I do not want to start a fight or anything but to say the power squadron is out puts all waverunner and power boat operators in the same catagory and that is not a fair statement.I am a very avid water skier and also do my fair share of fishing...all from the same boat.
I do have to say that I do it by the law and have to agree that there is allot of folks out there that when they get out on the water it is like their brain shuts off ? I have on several occassions chased down waverunners and other boats to let them know what 150' looks like.
But I must also add that I have had a troller wrap my ski rope in his trolling motor with my flag still up so not only do the power squadron have ill-trained operators ,so do the under-powered squadron.
And I will continue to shred the flat water when and where I can find it even if it is in the narrows of Strawberry.
