I have to go with Parish on this one, especially down here in So FL. Fort Lauderdale boasts itself as the "yachting capital of the world" with more mega yachts than anywhere else. I very much enjoy tooling around in the ICWW with the family and it burns a hole in my back side when I am crowded by 10 kids on dads 23 footer wanting to race around, drinkin and blasting their music for all to hear and making me jump thier wake (in a now wake area no less). Im sorry if I sound like a grumpy old man for saying that. I do believe that boaters are generally good people and we always wave at all the boats, even if they just glare back. Its kinda funny down here, if you dont have at least a 50K boat, you might as well stick to fishing from the pier. I am doing my part to dispell this myth. So if you see me, wave back or at least be courteous as we are all water lovers and have the same rights (and responsibilities) as the guys with the big toys.
