Another one sinks...

In Port Royal today, inshore. I got no idea why. 4th celebrations may have something to do with it. Maybe not.

I would not go in the river this weekend on a bet.

Larry, click on the picture of the guy in the yellow vest with the boat! I’ll bet that thing isn’t even rated for 5 people! Never mind, I’ll put it up!

Hmmm, wonder what the story of that is? Yeah, I’ve sworn off holiday boating.

“Apathy is the Glove into Which Evil Slips It’s Hand”, but really, who cares?

Go back and look at my edit DF!

I took some of my family out for a ride yesterday. Launched at the Sands and saw a nice 26 or so Sea Hunt Cuddy Cab hall azz by with two folks up front with their feet hanging off the bow. Told everyone on the boat that they better hope noone gets hurt and if the man sees em, they will need to breakout the checkbook!

5 would be a load in that boat!

Me too, a long time ago. It’s like going downtown and partying on New Years Eve. Fools are out acting up and trouble is likely to happen. Good time to stay home, or just go watch the show at a busy boat ramp :smiley: Many people who have boats use them 3 weekends a year. Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day, and most don’t have a clue.

Larry, you could probably make a load of money on the holidays being a boat launching valet! And save a lot of people time in line.


First, Most, Biggest

We were pulling up to the dock at JIYC Saturday after lunch in my 232 Grady. One flats boat with 5 on board, a jon boat with 5 on board both cut across my bow as they headed into the harbor.

I said a nice quiet prayer for them.

I not only dont fish on holidays but dont travel on holidays . There are some crazies out there .

I DONT HAVE A BOAT
BUT LOVE TO FISH> HINT

I would be willing to bet a dollar to a hole in a donut that they didn’t put in the drain plug. Only 100 feet from the ramp?
