Dealing with the larger pool of Cap'n Boneheads out there is bad enough for us regular boaters. It's got to be even more of a pain to deal with them in a law enforcement role.
It seems to me many of the new boaters out there forgot everything they learned to get their Boating Certificate 5 seconds after they receive it. It's one reason I rarely make it out onto the lake on weekends, and if I do, it's usually late in the day about an hour or so before sunset. I head over to Timber Island, anchor in the cove and watch the sun set.
