Bonehead Cruiser
I was fishing this morning between Goveners Island and Timber Island. A Black Regal about 38' or so came out of Silver Sands, full tilt, passed me about 75' to starboard, and almost swamped me. I was in a Grady White 248 Voyager . I barely had time to turn 90 degrees and get my bow into his wake. His wake was so big that I buried my bow pulpit when the wake came. I have never come close to buring the pulpit on any water on this lake. As he passed I laid on my horn and he never moved his head or looked my way. Had he swamped me he would have kept right on going. This guy should learn the rules concerning his wake responsibility, and perhaps even try a liitle boating courtesy.
