Most stupid thing you've seen...

I guess I don't care if folks are so self-deluded that they waste their money on damaging a boat they can't handle (I see the same mentality in snow skiing.....where folks think that their poor skiing skills will somehow be magically "fixed" with a new, expensive set of skis). However, it's these overly self-confident, self-denying individuals that raise insurance rates for all of us! Unfortunately, we all pay for this stupidity.
 
I spent a night at the fuel (E) dock at Nanaimo Harbor Authority dock recently.
I was reading a good book, so didn't turn in at dark, instead it was about 11:30PM. Between dark and when I quit reading I counted 19 little commuter boats over about 2.5 hours that were going in and out of the harbor with NO LIGHTS, nav or otherwise. I didn't count the one that I could see the cigarette glow as a light. Besides these little commuters (10 to 16 feet) there are also big commercial tugs, commercial fishing boats, and big yachts coming in and out. I guess all those commuter types just think that since they cross there all the time, everybody knows when and where they go. Thump thump.
