Subject: RE: BS: Boating People
Many years ago I was down at Rye. We were going fishing and had rented a stern trawler for the day.

There we were, half a dozen scruffy guys with our fishing gear. I guess the captain was waiting for the tide 'cos there were several other boats waiting as well.

This fancy car arrives at the boat ramp and they launch a really expensive looking speed boat down the ramp. In climb a couple of guys and a couple of good looking gals, all scantily clad.

They were putting on airs a bit and everyone was watching them.

They went roaring off at high speed with complete disregard of the No Wake laws.

They did a full circle up stream showing off their boat. As they completed their circle they came around across the boat ramp.

There was a huge crash as their outboard hit the concrete boat ramp.

In complete silence, with all eyes watching, they drifted slowly down stream.
