Re: Spookiest thing you have seen while boating
had a HUGE freakin snake swim up to the boat when I was fishing on the little manatee river as a kid. Now when boating in florida I carry a snake bat with plenty of extra magazines.

Running up from Lake Mojave into the Colorado River toward Hoover Dam.
My daughter yells that there's someone on the shoreline trying to wave us down. I spin around, and see a woman and child standing on the opposite shoreline frantically waving their arms. As we got closer, they both dive into the water and start swimming towards us. We pull them into the boat -- both are hysterical. Woman starts telling us her boyfriend, who is anchored in a cove around the corner, had beaten them both, had a gun, was threatening to kill them, and was hammered-drunk. The woman's arm was badly bruised and probably broken. I marked the spot on GPS, we sped off and found the park rangers, told them the story. The suited up in full armor and artillery, went to the coordinates, and arrested the moron. I hope he's rotting in jail today.

Re: Spookiest thing you have seen while boating
early in the spring on Old hickory Lake in TN. while spring testing I spotted something large floating low in the water. It was a dead cow. A friend was docked in downtown Nashville overnite on his crusier. Some one pounded onhis cabin door and woke him up. It was the cops. They took him out to his swim platform and spotlighted a female dead body and asked him if he knew anything about it. Lucky for him his wife was in the cabin. Joe Murray

Re: Spookiest thing you have seen while boating
Aug.1988 running north at dusk in Puget Sound toward Cattle Point on San Juan Is.; I'm excited pointing out killer whale off port bow to my wife; she's got a scared look on her face, keeps tapping me on the shoulder. I continue to point at the whale; she keeps looking more frightened and tapping me on the shoulder and points off the starboard bow; I glance over where a Trident? submarine is surfacing about 75-100 yards away. Scared the s**t outa me!
