To hell with the pontoon boat, continued on my course and forced them to slow and go behind me, they appeared to give me the sarcastic wave like I was the A-hole. It was never unsafe or imminent that there would be a collision, I would never do that, but this was so ridiculous. 4 vessels not giving way. Nice to see the boater education cert is working.

Been there...people just seem to dare you to contest their operating skills/knowledge, even when they are obviously in the wrong...it blows my mind.
