I hate it when people load the boat and are rude or careless with our boat...wish I could find a boater's etiquette site for motor boats!  :D

I actually had someone ASK what the rules for the boat were on Saturday.....It was a perfect opportunity to let everyone know what they could and couldn't do......from that standpoint the weekend was flawless. :good

It's a fact of Life:

After Monday and Tuesday, even the Calendar says : WTF .......

Yes, that's what was cool about it. My stepson's buddy from Fla...his first time on the Colorado

He has a boat and I'm sure he's been there too. So it was very cool of him to ask for the benifit of the 3 newbies on board.

One thing for sure, they have an open invite. I'm actually working up the courage to throw the biy the keys one of these days. :D

I agree...It was VERY nice of him to do the asking...I'm sure it was for the benefit of the newbies!  :good

I think we should compile a list of No-No's and I'll put a 'boating manners' list together...what are your suggestions to newbies???

I should clarify that our friends that went with us to the lake were perfect, I just was asked by another couple friend to go and I know they are RUDE and careless so I was in search of something to show them BEFORE having them load up!  ;)

People that have boats or have been around them know what it takes to get everything together... :good   It's nice to get that kind of response / support once in awhile.... :cool

Sun screen is hard to clean off the boat seats...if you don't clean it off eveutally it drys and turns the seats a gross yellow used looking color...

...that said, we apply the sun screen in the boat and just wash the boat and seats when we're finished with each trip.

Yup... I clean the seats after each trip then I spray some vinyl protectant to block the harmful UV rays.

Mid to late twenties..good kids. A bit crazy, but who wasn't at that age? :D

The no cigarettes on the boat rule works for me.....
