Only have 2:

RAP MUSIC

Too Tight of Schedules.

Other than that - I don't really care. I realize that people aren't going to bring anything and I am fine with that, and I realize that things are going to get broken/stained, ruined - it can all be repaired. Most of my friends I have known for decades so I am sure somewhere along the way we are even.

poeple who tell me what to do while on my boat! ( not talking about helping out docking or watcing for stuff in the water)

poeple who bring nothing

i dont ask for gas money but a offer would be nice

"get me back a 4:00" sorry your going to be late

the best one i have had was a young lady. i asked her for a beer out of the ice chest while she was in the cabin. she comes back with 2 one for her and one for me. i like the alum bottles so i grabbed that one and it was the last one. she then b*tches me out for taking her beer and it being the last alum bottle. i payed for all the beer gas boat camp etc. so after 10 min of being b*tched at i kicked her off in the middel on the lake to another boat!

People that try to help but end up grabbing and pulling on something that shouldn't be pulled on (i.e. windshield frame, bimini top poles, Superman's cape, etc.).

Hotties that flash every time I am looking the other way. One day on the river, barge captains - 2, me - 0!!!! What the deuce!!

People that say, "I'll get the anchor", and then proceed to grind the chain up the rubrail and the bounce the Fortress off the hull side a couple times.

People that are late to the launch ramp or dock. I've been burned too many times, and I'm too nice a guy to leave them.

Just remembered one from my single days: brought a girl out on the boat, in the summer, and she doesn't wear or bring a bathing suit. Didn't have a potty on that particular boat so it was a jump in to pee kind of day. She was furious with me for not telling her to wear a swimsuit ON A BOAT and we had to go home early to let her pee!!

Maybe the reason they cant chip in to go on your boat is the same reasoin they dont have a boat. THey cant afford it. Dont get me wrong Im sure your friends can afford a case of beer but maybe not $200 in gas money for the day.
Agreed! Lay down the rules and what you want. Complaining about you're friends behind their back is stupid. I regularly ride on my buddies boat and I never bring anything unless asked. Otherwise I see myself as a "for hire experienced deckhand!"
