I if was in the other boat, I would have been looking for any sudden moves on the part of the 36 footer that was blasting accross my bow.

You can read into it anyway you like. Bottom line is that the bass boater was driving like the village idiot. I practically came to a complete stop and was still in danger due to his multiple erratic direction changes and not backing off of his speed. As far as my 45-50 speed, my boat can accerelate to that speed very quickly . And,...if you were in the other boat, what you would have seen is a boat driving in one direction slowing down plenty time in advance to allow you to maintain your course safely and at the same speed.
