.....another close call
On tuesday afternoon while pushing my boatlift into position I was standing in about four feet of water and thinking that the water was pretty cold. Anyway, for the last hour or so, a white 14' aluminum boat with two fisherman had been trolling around with an electric motor a few hundred yards out from buoy 3. Then, all of a sudden, from out of the east, baroooom, bubba, budda,....barooom, budda, budda, barooom....a white 32' Baha Outlaw w/ grahics & open pipes comes thundering past buoy 3 at about 65 mph. What a whole lot of noise & commotion onto what had been a very serene scene. At least, it left as quickly as it arrived.
How close did it come to the 14' row boat? Maybe 100' Did it see the boat what with all that speed and the sunlight.........a good question?
