The cop boat was dragging a large log from the water-way so as to protect fellow boaters!

I was simply amazed!!!!! That is the first time I have seen them do anything constructive in decades.

That was totally opposite of their usual, which is harassing good people and letting the "ghetto rats" on jet-skis do as they please.

Thumbs up:thumb: po-po!

Still don't like you!!! LOL :shakehead:

That was nice but I will tell you on our lake it is the exact opposite. they leave the boats alone and stay all over the PWC boy's azzzes dats how it should be.
 
I feel like crap! guess what i did? I was leaving the lake and the road to the ramp is about 1 and a half lanes wide and i saw a bigger v8 boat being towed buy a f250. I pulled over to let him by and i waved:brickwall: it was a damn baja!!! sorry guys my bad

Those PWCs remind me of flies that just keep buzzing around pestering everyone.

I was at Lyman Harbor last weekend and saw two rental PWCs on a trailer that were just hammered in the front end. The guy that worked there said that two people collided and it happens all the time. He showed me there other two PWCs that had been repaired so many times that you can barely tell what kind they are.
 
Well, around here (grand lake st. mary's) they pull logs/floating stumps from the lake all the time... and leave good boaters alone. Only time I ever interacted with them was because I was swimming around my boat while I was anchored watching the hydroplane races. The lake only has 4 swim zones I was informed...

I also own a seadoo, but operate it like a boater... I'm the pwc rider you'll never notice cause I don't get in the way.

We spent a weekend at Grand Lake St. Mary's about 5 years ago. The state park campgrounds is very nice. The only issue I had was many the many shallow areas. We ended up finding a beach area and had a great time there. The water is very greeeeen!

I wish the seadoo people where I boat were as courteous as you. Seems like everytime I go boating they sit and wait and then attack my wake, sometimes getting a bit too close.
 
I had a friend with a 30ftr cruiser and a pair of pwc's. While the 30 ftr was anchored, him and his daughter was each on a pwc getting ready to go on a ride. he was goofing and come around the anchored boat and T-bone his daughter and shattered her femor.Not Good.:(

Besides all that damage he had to beach and leave his ski's and when went back the next day they were gone too!:irked:
 
i had a kid on a jetski cut behind my boat while i was towing my sister skiing.

luckily she was smart enough to throw the rope up in the air and let go.

needless to say, I almost mollyhocked him, but it turns out it was a kid (14 -15) that had never been on one....

I cut him (a little) slack, but really gave it to his father. Good thing he was apologetic, or i might have gotten a ride in the back of a 5.0
 
This is where a jetmate with a jet-o-vator comes in handy...you can hose 'em down!!! Just kidding the PWC's on the portion of the Chesapeake I boat at are pretty polite.

The wet police can be a pain in the Butt though.:mad:
 
Things must have been pretty slow on the water. They didn't have that flamed checkmate breakin' all the speed zones to chase after !!! :cool:

The wife and I spent this past Christmas on Magnetic Island and we rented two jet skis from this mob. So different here! The owner of the company has to have a rated captains license and he goes out with you in the group. We did a three hour tour ("A three hour tour") and since he's responsible, if you mess around in a way he doesn't like, back to the ramp you go! The wife and I both had a great time. We got to see green sea turtles, a dugong, and the Great Barrier Reef all from a jet ski in both the bays and the open ocean.
I hadn't been on a jet up until then in almost 10 years and man! Have they changed. He only runs new Sea Doo's...
