Please read about next Tuesday night...all boater who attend..this is posted on V-Drives also..
Our boats are not as cool as we think they are...I lived the heyday for these boats..thumbs up everywhere you drove them...but not today..they don't even "get us" anymore...we are an annoyance to most..
We need to be model boaters..period..sober..law abiding and curteous(sp) on the ramp and anywhere else we go on the lake. We need "no wake"in the no wake zone..period. We need to walk, not drive our boats down between the docks..or paddle them...we need to quit "grandstanding" in front of our beach...we have to stay off at least 100 ft from any other boats...or slow down when we are in the narrows..
So next Tuesday night...I think we need to take a night off..no question if your boat does not meet the noise laws...don't go. Let Tony and I meet with the Sheriff next week and try to put down some rules that they want us to abide by...
Then we are going to meet as a group..Pizza or something like that...then we're having a "coming to Jesus" meeting with the Sheriff and see if we can continue to have our fun..
If we do get to continue...there will be more policing by a larger group of guys...and if you are found to be guilty of something that does not further our cause...you will be voted off the island..period.
