Default they were out there

Yesterday on our way back to the dock at Parker's, we were on a track from Rattlesnake to Little Mark, to pass close to the markers, because I try to keep to the right returning into the bay.

One, as in one, as in 1, boat coming out, in the middle of the bay between the markers and the east shore of the bay. I'm about a quarter of a mile or so from the markers, again going to hug the markers going by, with no boats anywhere near close behind me.

I said to my wife,"want to bet he turns left in front of us?", but she being a woman of sound mind, declined the bet, and well she should.

He turned to his left and cut across my bow, causing me to turn to my left, albeit not sharply (I was only doing about 22 MPH per GPS). Had he passed port to port, we both would have had good angles for riding over the wake and he would not have been delayed.

If nothing else, Captain Boneheads help make conversation between a couple that's been married for almost 40 years!
