Ok after my earlier post I almost went to the bad side yesterday. Have the boat down in Destin and we docked up for some lunch. Had a pontoon boat in front of me with only a single 50hp. Had a lot of room but a lot of wind and current. When he goes to leave we figured he would walk the boat out. But he decides to drive it out. Well about 4 6inch scratches
later he makes it out. Thought about blowing up but what quickly changed my mind wasn't my Good nature but a freaking gorgeous female passenger , in a nice bikini, southern accent saying " we are so truly sorry"
We exchanged info. Life goes on. The guy felt bad and handled the situation in a polite manner.
