I agree. Many times I have been in a line of boats in the Weirs Channel with boats going sideways and struggling to maintain control because some boat at the front of the line is just crawling along.
Just because your boat does well at 1 MPH doesn't mean that another boat or a larger boat that catches the wind more will handle the same way. It would be nice if people would look behind them occasionally to see if their operation is causing problems for others.
A lot of times the people operating the slow boat are too busy chatting with their passengers or talking on their cell phone to notice the problems they are causing.
