Completely ignored. They ended up getting too close to the gas pump area to let the person leaving get out. This driver had no clue how to control his boat and eventually caused the boat leaving the gas pump area to scrape his boat along the back of a docked boat. Needless to say, both drivers had words for each other.
The wreckless boat didn't know how to pull into the gas dock area to pick up their friends. They ended up sticking the bow of the boat towards the dock, had the gas attendant hold the rope as their guests boarded.
Worst boating I've seen in years. Tried to talk to the boat driver but they had left by the time I had tied up.
All this happened after taking my kids tubing and had two boats fly by at full speed between me and another boat that was a little over a 150' away from me. You wonder why I don't go boating after 10 am on weekends!  |
I avoid Winni on weekends altogether. I go to the lake to avoid the stress of traffic but it seems to be Just as bad as Mass on weekends on the road and the water.
