My boat is nowhere near what a lot of you have but its mine, paid for, and I put a lot of hard work and pride into it, and i've found that people in my age group (early 20's) have absolutely zero respect for anything. So here's my list
1. Keep yourself damn shoes off my upholstery and the hull.
2. No fishing. Its not a fishing boat and you arent gonna cram it fill of your 3 tackle boxes and 6 rods.I had a buddy try to stand on the bow of my boat( in the seats, see no. 1) and fish. I was pissd
3. People who think going to the lake means an hour or two. If I go through the trouble of prepping the boat, dragging it to the lake, then cleaning up afterwards im staying all day. I had another friend who's gf was pissd and ready to go home at 1130 in the morning bc it was 95 and she was getting a sunburn. And she hadn't brought anything to cover up with, so she sat there pissd off til 7 that night. They quit talking to us lol

I don't think this one has been said yet, but what about how everyone wants to go out on the boat during the summer, but no one can be found when it's time to help put her away for the winter or to get her ready for the summer. That's how you find out who your real friends are.

We live on the water so rarely hang out on a boat. -I really do not like anyone (other than my wife) on the Cigarette and seem to take a lot of crap for not giving anyone rides. I don't care, when I do take people for rides, I'm reminded within minutes of how annoying passengers can be. When running fast, I don't want to be distracted or told to slow down.
After years of dealing with all the above comments, I'd just rather run solo.
I do enjoy boating with my dog Lucy in her 22 Pachanga

=Biggest pet peeve is smoking on the boat. Yrs back, my boatracer neighbor's skanky whore, three inch cameltoe girlfriend burned a hole in my brand new Baja seat... Why is there always one guy who can't go any length of time without lighting up. Last summer, one friend popped a cig into his mouth and I told him no.. Minutes later, he's hanging over the side, sneaking a but, holding it right over the tank vent... Bogus.

forgot about the being told to slow down, took my fiance's parents out with us last year, they couldnt wait to get back to the dock. it was a busy day so the lake was choppy, we were running 55ish just having a ball with her parents screaming slow down the whole time. YOU asked to come on MY boat, i will run as damn fast as i please

You guys have covered just about everything but here goes my two to add
1. If you pull up next to me on the beach and my wife and her friends are in pasties sunbathing ,I do not care if you have kids on your boat you decided to park right next to me , no I will not ask them to put tops on.
2. If the same situation arises and you dont like the level of or type of music Im playing no I will not turn it down or off for you. Once again you chose to park next to me , if the music bothers you park somewhere else.

Yea man, we where docked up at Winzens oyster house, and this 7-10 year old jumps on my boat and honks the horn.... i walked down there to find the kid/ parent for a some good cussing and finger pointing and there was no defiant way to figure out who did it.... but very odd.
