Is it just me???

Am I the only one running into extremely dumb boaters? Last Friday at a small lake in Oneida County, I watched 4 seperate boats take off with their bow mount trolling motors still in the water. 2 of them even made it onto plane before noticing (ouch). Then I watched one real genious in a Warrior boat with a 150 on the back try to take off with not one but two anchors out. After several attempts at trying to get the boat to move he finally realized that something was amiss. Sign him up with Mensa. Kind of makes me wonder how safe it is on the water? And I'm not even going to try and type all the inept attempts at boat launch and retrievals I have waited behind this year. Sometimes it's funny but it is starting to be aggravating. Sorry, just had to vent! [:knockout:]

I dont think it is just you!I think the problems is far more worse than that.Its because alot more people i think are venturing north which doesnt help also boat sales and person watercraft right now is kinda out of controll it seams everybody and there brother are buying boats?Also you could have been with some people that after awhile the sun kinda got to them?Dunno for sure but hope this helps!
