Have to rant... Saturdays run...
I just had to vent and who better to vent to than others that will feel the way I did Saturday. Now, first and foremost, I don't expect people to bring gas money when we boat. I just expect them to bring their own food/drinks and help me clean up at the end of the day. One of my good friends was out with us Saturday and he always brings fuel money, to the point where I tell him he's overly contributing and doesn't need to do that every time we go out. The other friend that came out brought his girl that he's talking too. My plan was to go to a restaurant for lunch then head over to another spot that we like to go to. The bay was a little snotty on Saturday, but was an awesome run. So lets get down to what pissed me off.
We are headed to stop number 1 and I heard a couple "crunch" noises, but didn't know what it was. I turned quickly and noticed the other friend sitting on the back deck with a rope tied to the grab handle of my seat. I yelled and told him to get the hell down (we've had this conversation before about being safe and not sitting up there). We get to stop 1 and have our lunch. After lunch Im at the boat and the other friends girl got to the boat before him. She's on board and finishing a drink. I hear the CRUNCH again and notice what the hell it was. She smashed a damn beer can with her foot on the floor of my boat. I freaked out and said "What the hell are you doing?" Her response was "That's what the other friend did and thought it was okay"... Hes walking back at this point and I asked what in his right mind makes it okay to smash beer cans on the floor of my f**king boat? I get no apology. I only get a "calm down" which then leads me back into reminding him to NOT sit on the rear deck underway. Its dangerous and DNR will stop us if they see it. So we continue on to stop number 2. Like I said the bay was a little more snotty Saturday and we hit some boat wake at one point that put us up in the air a bit. Felt a tug on my seat and after we pass the wake, I see that the other friend is STILL on the back pad. I immediately shut down and went 6mph until I got to spot number 2. Everyone kept saying go and I told them tough ****. You don't want to listen on my boat, then we go 6mph. So, we get to spot number 2. The finger piers were up a little bit because of where the tide was. The other friend goes off to the bathroom and comes back, I hear a THUD.. He jumped from the finger pier down to the rear deck. So at this point, my meter was pegged. I went off again saying he needs to respect my property and not this isn't a jungle gym. I still get a "calm down, its okay"... No, its not okay. I don't need you destroying my interior or worse, messing up the hatch (guy is 240lbs easy). Later in the day, it was about time to leave, he does it again. You guys can probably imagine how heated I was and of course. He get BACK ON THE DAMN REAR HATCH for the ride home so I go slow again... Told him its going to be a long ride at 6 if he doesn't keep his ass in the boat. He finally sat in the seat and off I went. When we got back, he just sat there while my good friend and I got his and his girls stuff off the boat, flushed it and did all the typical things to put the boat away.
This was supposed to be a nice day and I want to take advantage of what season is left. Needless to say, the other friend will not be on board anymore. I just can't believe how inconsiderate people can be. Anyone else deal with people like this? I'm sure we've all been there at one point.
