Default Sandbar Fun

I have not run aground in a looooong time. I did have plenty of water and beer so it was kinda nice all alone. Two different boats from my community dock passed by and had two completely different reactions.

The first guy(in a 15' McKee) insisted on pulling me off. I ended up making him give up as to not burn up his 40hp Susuki. He was really worried about leaving me and made me give him my cell phone # so he could call and check on me. Good neighbor and steward of the sea.

The next guy(in a 20' CC) blew passed at full throttle, never waved and was laughing like a girl. I don't get it. I thought everyone knows to give a little wave. Nice community I live in. Good thing I wasn't dying. I waited for him at the dock and told him my new project in life was to make sure my two little boys never turned out like him.

Please give a small wave! it is the most universal way for boaters to know "you ok" "I'm ok" "ok"
