For example; those scared of boating in the same lake as big fast boats. Maybe its a matter of growing up, but I think its more an issue of giving up and letting others control every little aspect your life. Some people like that. Others don't. Rules are made to be broken. You just have to carefully choose the ones you break.

Rules are made to be broken.

That is fine BUT when you get caught breaking the rules you have to accept the consequences.

Of course the other problem is some people think it is ok to drink and then get behind the wheel of a boat or car. Then other people may have to accept the consequence of your actions

I am sure that most of the folks with the negative posts on MP had attitudes to start off with. In my life I have been stop by MP once and they were just fine. I was 100% in the wrong and I spent 45 minutes of my day with them as the did their inspection. Hey, I was wrong and had no problem……………….guess what? I did not get a ticket.

I recently had a boat break down and although it was not in NH. MP is not allowed to tow there either. I told him I understood and not to worry about it. He said they could not for insurance reasons. I understood and had no problem. I never asked him for a tow nor did I hint at it.

So, guess what? He towed me back to the docks while I waited for help. Funny how these folks can be so nice to some people and so mean to others? Might be time to look in the mirror don’t you think?
