hoping that they learn some sense before they ruin the sport for the rest of us up here...
had a good surfing session saturday afternoon. cruising up along some cliffs in a fairly narrow channel, maybe 1/5 mile wide and 150ft deep across, room for 4-5 boats to pass that are recreating and most others will slow down and find a line to get through. idiots in a chaparrel sunesta 24-26ft(brand new one) came by us around 50ft off the right side as I was surfing. we were only 40ft off the cliffs on the left so we were crowded in. they were doing in excess of 30mph. dropped the rope so we could slow down and let them by as it startled me. boat had around 10 early 20's on it, and beers in hand...
the worst came around 3 hrs later as they surfed by our dock 60-70ft off the bank, music blaring and throwing a nice wake into everyone's dock and boats.
I know that they advertise them for surfing and shouldn't be, let alone to kids drinking...
charged up the marine radio incase we see them again(no cell service at the lake). hoping the sherriff will straighten them up.....
