My comment was not directed toward you in anyway. It was more of a general statement, but lightly directed at the person who suggest the DCB wasn't as close as it appeared...

Post number 11
Maybe you should keep your post number at 10, just saying. Go back and read post numbers 8 & 36. Pontoon pilot kept his line as he should. There was NO room to move to the right because of the shoreline. So he was doing exactly what you said he should do. This was NOT a poker run day. Just boaters coming back to Lake Havasu from up river. I'd say 3' was too close so your guess was completely wrong!

mallatt442 Have you boated that area. I live here, I boat here and have talked to both pilots. They both confirmed NO room to the right. Oh I didn't know they had "Special Pontoon rules" Last time I looked the lead vessel has the right of way in this situation. Wonder what TM would say about this situation? Oh and all that noise makes it right. Please post an advisory before you come boating here. Thanks in advance.

Paty, I didn't mention right of way or "special pontoon rules". It is clear the pontoon is the stand-on vessel in this situation and should maintain course.........until you enter a dangerous situation. If and when I come to Havasu, can I stay at your house? I feel we are starting to bond......
