I like what being said in the thread. I agrre it is the 'nut' behind the boat. Not the boat. I have a problem with those who rent boats and or PWCs. They need to be educated on the rules and regulations as well as boating etiquete. Boat Owners in general are not the problem. I could add the newbies to this list. But I notice lately that the salesperson who sells a boat will go out with the new owner and instructs rhe owner on the basics.
