well this doesn't count as the dumbest thing ever on the water- but it's the dumbest thing I've ever been asked on the water. I was anchored in a cove swimming with my family and neighbors yesterday when some middle aged dude with a bunch of teenage girls in a mastercraft X star comes up and starts giving me crap about my boat- he started asking stuff like "did that outback come with a free steak?" and "did you have to go to australia to get that boat, mate?" I'm pretty sure he was just being a jerk but I wasn't even sure what to say- then I watched him almost sink his boat doing power turns. Well turns out he's an owner of a local business and those teenage girls are his "employees" with his wife and 2 daughters of course nowhere in sight.
