    So what do you do in this situation, if I stop the boat, then the guy possibly runs over the surfer and the boat. This was a novice surfer and there was a high likelihood that she would fall while he was back there. I'm trying to get the video from a friend that was recording and post it.
    I use the wet sounds mic all the time. It's very effective.

    Amazing how many irresponsible boaters there are.

    They usually get the clue if you tell them they are number one with the appropriate finger.

    It is shocking to me how often this happens when surfing. When the boat finally decides they want to travel over 11mph and the decide to pass and everyone in my boat is flipping them off and they drive by, smile and wave. Not a clue in the world what they were doing was so dangerous to the surfer.

    +1 for the wet sounds mic. It is very effective. I just have to keep it out of the hands of the 5 year old. Literally her favorite part of the boat....
