Just so everyone knows: please do not confuse "thundercraft" with my Active Thunder.. Completely different types of boats and from the sound of it completely different types of drivers. No way would I ever risk scratching my boat in this manner .

But in all seriousness this is terrible and truely shows how some captains need to learn how to maneuver their vessel's before piloting them into a crowded dock. The attitude of the crew also is astounding.

I had a Capt'n bonehead cut me off this weekend. It is nothing in comparison to this story but the irony is too funny not to mention.

I was heading out of Winter Harbor. A smaller blue Formula was a bit ahead of me on my starboard. We were both on straight courses heading out into the Broads. With no clear reason and not even looking the boat turns hard left heading toward Wolfeboro / Alton direction. I back off and cut right. All of my passengers were shaking their heads in disbelief. We then catch the name of the boat on the side: "Wake Up"

Found it too ironic not to share.

But that is why you have to stay alert in any circumstance when on the water.
