Inconsiderate Boaters / A-hole Boaters / Boating bonehead Pics

Ok, I figured it was time that this subject had a thread of its own. (maybe Islander and LC Addict have some pics to share from this past weekend. B-)

Here I will start it off:

The A-hole that was literally running over my anchor line one day in July 08 at least 6 times
I think the boat was called double trouble

Here is the anchor line rider once again (same one from above) and you can see how close he is heading towards the boat that was next to me... YIKES :-s

Don't have pictures but I do have a ton of stories.

The latest occurred a few weeks ago as I was towing the kids on a tube. The guy was right behind me and wouldn't get out of my wake even though I pulled over to the side thinking he'd get the hint. When he stayed behind the kids I just pulled way over and stopped and threw up my arms.

Him: What's the problem
Me: I have tubers behind me and your riding my tail (not what I would have said if the kids were not present)
Him: I was watching


I just shook my head and went on instead of having the kids see me lose my cool.

X( Faster, I would have taken his picture when he was behind you, gone around and got his numbers and reported his sorry a$$ for wreckless boating, endangerment or some kind of chit... If the cops don't want to do anything about it then post the pic all over the internet :-o , you tube or someplace. That is soooo wrong..... :|

A new challenge for when I get back on the water. I'll have to keep an extra battery on the boat for the camera to get pictures of every stupid idiot I see on the lake. Now, if the thread was about A-hole neighbors....... :D

I couldn't believe you didn't, must have been caught up in the moment.... when it comes to the kids, all else escapes your thought processes.

Good one JP! That was the worse of all of them. THere were boats speeding down the straight stretch and then here comes this guy out in front of them. X( X( X( X( Even if he did not know about the race he was not only in their lane he would have been on the wrong side of the lake for navigation to boot not to mention all the tied up boats he sent rollers to that were much larger than any of the speed boats sent out.
