| As I posted a couple weeks ago, at 4:30am running about 15mph I was momentarily blinded as a girlfriend (wearing Cat's Eyes headlights) tried to talk to me from the front seat. After no more than 10 seconds she turned her head away again and 1 second later I saw I was 10 feet away from a very large white object, looked like a ski jump to me. Turned the tiller to swipe it and hoped the impact wouldn't flip the boat. Impact was a "blloooooopppp" as I bounced off one of those huge blow-up raft/slides. Yep, a big balloon. But if it was really a solid structure......
I thought it a good reminder about nightime safety.
ps - I picked up a USCG Boating Safety booklet the other day. Interesting that many "mistakes" we see all the time are actually felonies.
