Angry Bass Boats Captain Bonehead

Sorry to point fingers at one particular group but if the shoe fits.......well..... Today while out on the lake I had no less than 3 Captain Bonehead manuvers in 3 minutes.

We were near the Barber Pole heading toward the broads when 1,2,3 bass boats passed at a good clip, but definately not above 45 MPH, but with way less than 150' of safe passage. One was more like 40' and another 60'-80'. There was a 4th incident over near Glendale but they were closer to 150' than 100'. Were we in danger no but that is not the point here - following the rules & laws comes first and foremost or then why do we have them.

To me today and even 3 or 4 years ago my obeservation has been that the operators of bass boats have little regard for the rules and laws of NH on the water. I just cannot believe they are that arrogant about doing what they want regardless of the rule or law.

BTW I was in a 14' Starcraft with a 40 Merc so I was not in a speed boat.
