what about Chris the owner of Big Power Racing who irresponsibly navigated your River at 100mph plus only to run a ground spilling hydraulic fluid?

He yelled to us to watch out for logs when we idled past him, but I guess that wasn't the case...

Nope he failed to observe the channel markers and ran his companies 32' skater a ground at WOT in front of ten boats! Then leaked hydraulic fluid all the way back to Old Saybrook where they raced to catch a ferry. Third time he tried to make it up River unsuccessfully I guess he's just not cut out for boating outside of the GSB.....

We stayed late and cleaned up after him


Also got a report somebody went out to the run and forgot to say "I love you" to his wife before he left. We're looking into that.
