Seriously, ok just venting here. The ramp I normally put in at on the lake the wife and I generally go to, seems to have gotten really crazy this year. Major crowded, lots more pontoons than last year. Which is fine, they certainly have every right to be there same as I. But wow, etiquette seems to have flown out the window. So a boat was pulled up on the right side of the loading dock , and I was waiting to pick up my family so they could board,. The boat was a pontoon, so it took up most of the area, and come to find out from my family, they were just waiting there at the dock for a friend to show up who was on the way. I mean really, when I am waiting on someone, I back out into the lake out of the way so folks can get in and out of the loading dock. Then, coming back in, I was almost to the same loading dock, and a ski boat out of nowhere zooms past me to get to it first - and I was about 50 yards away. Ended up having to wait a while for them... Ok sorry for venting, the wife and I are still fairly new to this, got this boat in June of last year, but even then I had read up and knew the proper etiquette... and regulations... Ok so by the way, how come I cannot hit enter to create another paragraph when I post here? Lol, long day.
