I live in St Joe on the river with a couple of slips in front of my condo, direct access to Lake Michigan. I watch boats going in and out all weekend long. It NEVER ceases to amaze me watching people heading out to the lake in open bow 18 footers, with the sky black to the west and with the weather band warning of storms coming. DOH!
You just know their life vests are stored below decks still in the plastic bags. You just know they don't turn on the VHF. You just know they don't have an anchor.
Why do people believe they can operate a boat without basic seamanship skills? I feel sorry for the USCG dealing with idiots like these.
