How did you know a bee pooped in your boat? Any video of that?

And I drink just about every time I go out. It is part of the experience for me. The lake is my relaxing place and time. Do I get drunk...rarely (can’t say never on that one). But I don’t drive the boat or the car if I do.
Alcohol does impact performance. During a two hour span one time I went from surf 360’s to not being able to drop the rope and ending with a face plant into wave. Both videos are worth watching with time stamps.

LOL. I've already got the woman of my dreams. So if my man card's revoked, I guess I'll manage.Quote:

No video, But I know what it looks like. The same way as you can identify bird poop on your car without having seen the bird...Quote:

The reason boating and beer/alcohol are associated so much is those two things are connected to a good time.
The reason is they relax you, make it easier to let loose and not be so literal about things.
People tell me all the time they like me better when I drink. Not drink, just drink.
For me I’m very analytical and can be very black and white. The drinking allows me to be more grey
There’s a place for drinking and boating, like there is a place for drinking and going on the town.
The most important is have fun, be responsible, and make those memories for a lifetime.

Where I live, we have a heat index above a hundred for a good part of the summer. There is nothing like climbing in the boat after a good hard set, taking off the jacket, and opening a cold beer in the sun.
We go out of our way to be the good guys on the lake and be responsible....but drinking is part of the fun for us.
Maybe it is easier for me because my friends are not idiots about it though and we have never had an incident.

How honest should we be here?
I don't think I've ever launched without a well stocked cooler. That's pretty much a crime. We'd run out of gas before we run out of beer. Being the driver 90% of the time I usually keep the suds to a minimum until the riding is done.
HOWEVER when the real riding is done and the kids are back there on the tube for eternity, and I've sworn to not try to end their lives prematurely, I mean what's a guy supposed to do? PASS ME A BEER. Just make sure you keep it low and have that hidden cupholder alongside the helm ready to go.
We don't get stupid but we do have a good time. If we have a boat load of other kids with us I usually refrain until we're done or stopped as I don't want some overly embellished story making it back home to the other parents about their friend's crazy dad drinking, and blasting the stereo and trying to kill them...
This last summer I came up with a new strategy. Drink Budweiser select 55. It's not really beer, is it?

We’ve been boating for 10 years now and there has never been a drop of alcohol on our boat. I have such a great time with my family and friends that if alcohol made it any better I couldn’t stand it. That said, I don’t have a problem with anyone doing what they want as long as it doesn’t negatively impact mine or my family’s life or good time on the water! Cheers!

No beer on board. we do not drink, so we keep it off. there have been a time or two that someone else has brought them on though.
I find interesting that no one from Washington, Cali or Colorado will own up to a pre or post sessh bowl....[emoji850] [emoji23]

It depends on the crew and location. If the kids out number the adults no beer on the boat. This may change once the kids get thier boaters certs and can handle the boat, then the better half and I will relax and have them drive. When running the boat with riders out back the amount consumed is very little, once we are in a cove for the day right down from the condo we will relax in the water with a few an hour, but it's mic ultra or coors light and always have a twiner between of water or Gatorade. Labor day of 2016 was drinking funny I will share. My wife does not drink much craft beer at all, but her, her friend, and I shared a pitcher of son of a peach at lunch. Well after lunch the blower went out upon returning to the boat. They decided to grab a 6 pack of son of a peach and split it while I replaced the blower. Well just say they enjoyed they day and it was like having 2 little giggly girls on the boat the rest of the afternoon.
No beer, no boat! The only time you will catch us dry is when the wife is on call. Other than that cooler is stocked. I will say that my wife is not much of a drinker and she could take it or leave it on the boat or elsewhere. I however feel naked on the boat without a few adult beverages. Just part of the lifestyle for me. If I’m on the water for the most part there is beer in the cooler. Maybe it’s just a southern thing. Curious as to where all the teetotalers live? CA? PNW? Just curious..

Beer is always on the boat for us. I have to wait until all wakeboarding is completed before I can crack a cold one. I've attempted riding in the past, even with only one on my stomach, and I am absolute garbage! I save all the beverage consumption for when I'm done (or choose to take a surf set). Momma bear loves frosty beverages on the boat and are definitely a must. Honestly, there's few things better than an ice cold oat soda in the heat of summer out on the water.
Hey, I'm in CO, i don't do that either, so it does not ride with me either. there is certainly lots of it around. even this morning on my run at 5:30, someone was out toking up early for work. on the snow last week, getting off the lift about everytime, someone was smoking. I guess they are loading us up with lots of tax money for this, i don't know what they use it for though.Quote:
