Was surfing the back door, and found GT's link to his pictures, man that boat couldn't have been 10 feet away from him!!! I bet the motors rattled their ears on that!!!

No wonder he wants to know who it was. But really, what can he do????????

___ around here we call it "a good ole what for" or a good mother F@#$%*. It don't do a thing other than making you feel better after you're done.
Yea BR I was looking at his photos the other day and thought humm I know why he's asking now

ROFL.... Pretty dang funny to browse a form and see this.....

My explination is now on LC.com.....

To be honest I was just amazed... I didn't have time to be pi$$ed.

But the more I thought about it, the more I thought Bill needed to be informed..... a sneeze and there would have been 7 dead people on our boat, not to mention those on his.

Just plain bad judgement..... and remember another boat passed between us and the shore.... going 100+.

I was sent a video showing them going by others fairly close..... Ill share it all with Bill Friday... she what he thinks.

G.T. I don't post over there anymore, but I do still go and browse, so I'll read your post... But PLZ, post the outcome over here too!!!

Will do.

Went in the back door again, and found this!!!
G.T. they couldn't believe how close they were either...

That was pretty close. One tiny mistake at that speed could be fatal.

Go over on lc.com and say that! You'll be called a drama queen, old fart, etc.! (and that's in public!). Just because of the inherent risk (and my dislike of loud, fast boats) I won't be anywhere near them. To each his own...but I do think you have to somehow impress on both drivers and spectators how risky this can be. Get all the FACTS out and let people make decisions about where they want to be. I think G.T. has handled the situation in a very classy manner but his message is getting lost......JMHO!

Ok I'm headed there now, just to see what all is being said!!!

Here's a smart guy.

I bet he said something like "hey man let's cut this corner here in front of Waitsboro, we can get there quicker. Why the hell are al these boats coming right at me at like a 100 friggin miles per hour?"

Then a pontoon comes by and cuts the same corner. Meanwhile, we sat in a nice safe spot next to the pump house at Waitsboro so we could see then all.
