Question NHMP Investigators Pushing the Right Buttons...?

This discussion could have ended with...
Quote:
"This case is under investigation by NHMP".
In their investigation, what buttons would the NHMP have pushed?

Back in August, I described a 5-yr-old at the helm, so how absurd would it be to have a 7-yr-old at the steering wheel?

(And an adult without a PFD navigating in fog?)

Nowhere does it mention "friend"! The inference is pretty clear, he's a neighbor ..... now, if he also happens to be a "friend", as Upthesaukee so eloquently put it -- those are people I want around me !

Time to take that 5 minute break from your keyboard !
Alternatively, I infer that PW shares ownership-pride with a duplicate 13' Boston Whaler in the neighborhood.


As for reading comprehension, compare what I wrote (in red, below)

with the "eloquent quote" (in yellow, attached):

"Who would want to be "the friend" of a named boater in a serious boating accident?"
