WOW... I am still astonished that things like this surprise me...but this one definately does... However, I know of many times that people who live on shore do not like people anchoring in "THEIR" bay. So they make it as difficult as possilbe for them. I have heard in discussions of people deliberately slowing down to cause maximum wake speed to disrupt rafters.
I remember once rafting in a bay in front of camp belknap. This was years ago. We were 500 yards across the bay from them. The camps sail boats used the bay but it is nice and sheltered and we wouldn't bother them. Well the camp director came out saying it was illegal to be there. At the time I had a 17 ft whaler and he said to me (no lie) it was illegal to be standing in the boat!.. Anyway, we called the MP and they said it was fine to be there.
Just goes to show you that people not only think they have "water driveways" but "bays" that are theirs...
