Rule # 1 ...You NEVER EVER have the right of way
Rule # 2... When in doubt, see Rule # 1

When I'm on the boat, I want to relax and enjoy. I don't recall an instance where I HAD to be somewhere bad enough that I wanted to get into a pi$$ing contest with another boater over the right of way with the potential result of ruining a perfect day.

I've been on the lake for coming up on 12 years. I adopted this rule about 7 or 8 years ago and have not had a bad experience with another boater since.
