Question Shoes on boat or not?

I was reading a description in the Sonic Forum of how a boat was treated and realized that not everyone who wears shoes on a boat is struck by lightning! I absolutely don't allow it. The only exception being elderly relatives who can't reach their shoes to remove them! What do you do?

Either shoes or bikinis. You decide which.

I have a carpeted floor. I also have bad feet. I wear shoes. I also bring mine with me when I boat with others and ASK if I may wear them (they are always non-making kinds of shoes). I respect the boats of my friends more than my own. I allow shoes if people respect mine. On the carpet only. NEVER on the vinyl. Never on the deck, though I have on the off occasion that timing does not allow me to take them off...hitting a piling or dock for instance.

Therefor, I didn't vote.

I have to go with waterfoul and too old. Inside the boat OK but not on the vinyl and certainly not on the deck! Does that count as NO shoes?

OR > Either shoes or bikinis. You decide which.

Take your shoes off, or take off.
