As I approached the boat I realized it was just moored right smack in the middle of the channel. There were five women merely enjoying themselves. Obviously they were oblivious to the rest of the boaters. All boaters were trying to maneuver around them. What were they thinking??? There are so many places up our way where a boat can moor and be out of the line of traffic.
So there are a lot of ignorant boaters out there we all know that, but did you stop to inform them of their mistake?
If they chose not to move my next call would have been to the MP as they are in fact in violation as it is, unless I'm mistaken, not legal to anchor in a channel.
