I thought the same thing! I'm not experienced at driving offshore and my boat is not at all fast, but are you supposed to chop the throttles like that??

All good! This seems to have cooled down and I am glad. The beer offer I extended to the guy in the video applies to you too. I hope we all have a safe summer!

This video represents about 99% of the boating that I see done on a weekly basis. If this guy is that irresponsible then I don't know one person that should own a pleasure boat. I understand the life jacket for kids under 12 or whatever age you prefer and he lanyard deal but what else do you want somebody to do? I mean come on, if I was going on my buddies boat and he said, "No drinking on the boat, you have to wear a PFD, only 4 passengers allowed at once, only going 45mph today cause there's 2 footers, etc, etc, etc...." I most likely would say I don't even want to go, have fun with your field trip.

At some point being anal about every little thing takes the fun out of it. Let's be honest if I was standing at the dock on a nice calm summer day and saw a 38 Top Gun with 5 middle aged dudes all wearing PFD's pull in, I would prolly get a good chuckle.

The guy in the front is drunk enough to be wearing one, but the rest are able to stand so they shouldn't require one.
