WhatÂ’s the bigger hazard? PWC Riders, or Boaters zigzagging with their 4 & 5 year olds clinging to a tube. I really think its time for mandatory licensing for all watercraft operators. Since IÂ’m on a roll, how about the Wakeboarders throwing monster wakes at all of us tied up at Foxes & Roadrunner. Jeeza get clue & wakeboard in areas where there are not 100K boats getting beat to shit because of your stupidly.

I had to laugh at the way you wrote this.
It scares the shit out of me when I see kids
on those tubes doing 90down the river,only to
be cut off by a sea-doo!
Just a thought though....isn't there a
beach right next to Fox's where you could
beach your boat, instead of up against the
dock?

PWC's outnumber tubers 10 to 1 on the strip so I see them as the bigger hazard...however; when I see tubers in traffic zigzagging, it boggles my mind...

You know the tubers are annoyed at all the non-tubing boaters getting in the way, the PWCs are annoyed that there are tubes behind the boats, cuz then they can't jump the wake 20 feet off their sterns. And the wakeboard boats must get annoyed if they see flat water, because they always seem to go and try to mess it up. :boxingguy :messedup:
So many are clueless......... :mad:

I know it's “only” a boat, but the bottom of mine looks the same now as the day I took it off the showroom floor. To ME beaching is a sin especially at resale time.
Sorry guys I felt like venting this morning didnÂ’t have my morning coffee.

thought I was the only one that felt that way!
BTW, it don't matter if it's 100K or 3K, I don't wanna get my boat all f'ed up due to joe cool with a tuna tower and 3-4' south west swells behind his hoopty.

This one made me laugh! We were in Parker for
4 days last week and I was amazed at the
amount of PWC. I have never seen it so bad.
I totally understand what you mean about the
bottom looking as good as the top. I just don't
forsee the people slowing down, especially right
there in front of Fox's. It's were the jackasses
like to show off and do stupid tricks.
Good luck on your next trip, maybe we
could all have coffee together. :)
