I was waterskiing in Glidden Cove Tuesday. As usual, I would drop of a ski about 200' away from the dock. As I was skiing over to Sleepers and back, a MP rib pulled up near the dock and left.

When we got back to the dock. I realized the ski is gone! We looked everywhere for it. We suspect, maybe the MP picked up the ski. Which is unlikely as in the past, they never have.

A call to MP hdqtrs confirm that the officer picked up the ski and will return it. An hour later, it was returned and the MP comment that the ski is a navigation hazard and we shouldn't be leaving the ski behind! WOW! A new rule? I can't ski on a single ski any more??? There were no boats on Glidden Cove but mine that day. We were not endangering another boat.

Seems like a slow day on the lake....................
