A Bayliner piloted by a Cap'n Bonehead coming from the direction of Welch's Island decided that, rather than dropping to headway speed to pass among us on his way to the passage between Pig and Locke's Island, he'd stay up on full plane and passed between us all at between 25 and 50 feet.

I had a similar situation in the same spot just the other day (maybe i was one of the other boats, in fact). What upset me was that Marine Patrol was right there and did nothing!!!! Must have been looking in another direction!
