I seldom "try" to miss an opportunity to comment. However, in this case, I can only offer that perhaps he was alerted for a specific boat to stop. (Or that his presence was more important as a warning to a specific boater).

MPs can get writer's cramp on weekends.

And I "try" to avoid striking pedestrians.

Sorry other boaters inconvenience you.

Both observations are very true: For me, I think of 10 canoes, lined up end to end.

1) Is that a fair question for a "Poker RUN"?

2) How could one determine that, anyway? Anyone can contribute freely and without participating.
