Another Boating Etiquette Question

Long Pine · 08-16-2010, 01:46 PM

Some will argue (correctly I think) that going 2 at a time or 3 at a time in each direction actually saves time for everyone over the alternative of going 1 at a time from each direction. However, I don't want to be the boater that follows another boater under the bridge because my action would likely be perceived as rude by the boaters on the other side of the bridge (even if more efficient for everyone). So I follow the one-at-a-time-from-each-direction rule even if it is not optimal in terms of efficiency.
