No problem at all... we've all had breakdowns and I know it's even worse when you travel out of state and don't even get off the ramp! Hopefully the problem isn't too expensive.
LOL, yes the first part of the video is my boat. You're welcome to come along one of these days.
You're welcome Mike, I'm glad you and Denise were able to make it!
IDK, but I heard someone stating elsewhere that it was an offshore with an American flag down the side. Obviously my boat matches that description and I know of only one other in attendance with a flag down the side...I can tell you it was most certainly NOT me that blew through the Middletown/Harbor Park no wake zone. I idled through on both the north and south bound trip, I'm sure my passengers and any surrounding boats will confirm that. With that said, my wake is no doubt larger idling than it is at speed, but regardless I complied as I always do through that NWZ.

There was also a Cigarette with flag graphics who complied as well
There were other parts to that report about boats that don't even seem to exist.
If the owners of either "flag" boat could PM me here, I'd like to hear any comments they may have. If we have false accusations being made, then that needs to be addressed when the situation is discussed with the DEEP.

As both Sick Stinger and I stated above, I (the owner of the 46 cig) did not blow through Petzolds or the Middletown NWZ, nor have I ever.
FWIW, I ran up river on Sat with that Fountain and he did not blow through either NWZ (I obviously did not either). I can't speak for him as I wasn't running with him on Sunday, but based on my experience with him the day earlier, I don't have any reason to believe he would have run them on Sunday.
I'm being told someone saw one of the two boats blow through the Harbor Park NWZ, but I can tell you with 100% certainty that it was not the cig pictured above doing so (north or south bound). Anyone saying I did is point blank telling false statements! I would have no problem getting plenty of witnesses to attest to that fact that I didn't run that NWZ. If anything, I suspect whoever is saying this garbage has an axe to grind...
BTW, thanks for the great pic!
