When I redid my interior I converted my back seat into buckets, now 4 is the max capacity.

Shoes or sandals on my vinyl

That's why I posted "no cell phone use except for emergency's" on my boat.

It's funny when you get the look of stupid when you ask simple things to be done or not when it comes to your boat but if you ever tried that crap in their car they would have a cow and most times a car cost a fraction of what a boat does.
The next time some of you folks run into that person the ticks you off on the boat have them drive you a couple states away on their gas and light up a smoke on the way. When the sun comes up tell them you are afraid of sunburn and start spraying spray tan all over the place. When you get to the corn field in the far away state, jump out and stomp in the mud a few time and then hop back in for the free ride home and see how they like it. If you really want to get them back bring along a shedding dog that likes to get car sick.
As for the guy that jumped off the boat and then answered his cell phone... never again in so many ways.

I know a few people both men and women who have nice rides and they treat them just as you described.. Expensive newer cars and they are always dirty,messy ,etc.. Some people just dont care..

most of friends are respectful of my boat, but thats just the people I hang with, if they werent those types we wouldnt be friends.

But what irritates me is when my friends sit there like a bump on the log and dont have the common sense to see what might need to be done or ask if they can help out. I understand they dont have boating knowledge but still if you see were coming to dock, somebody has to catch the boat, get the lines ready etc. But sometimes i found with people that have not grown up around boats or used to them, is to tell them to just sit down or wait off to the side till everything is ready.
