Default Boat flipped at wiers
Anyone else hear bout this. Buddy of mine was headed out there Thursday and said when he got there a boat was flipped and pinned against the wiers on the inside. They had people trapped inside and didn't get out until 11 pm that night when the tide switched! That would suck!

Licenses are required these days, but not for the older guys.

Things can get sketchy when that current is ripping through there.

Hopefully no one was injured other than their pride being hurt.

more enforcement! we need another license to operate something. dude get a life! I was pissed I had to sit in a class for a few hours for the dang boat safety course, which is a joke because I've never been stopped and checked for a boaters safety card ever! and I get stopped and checked all the time for boat reg. fishing license, my catch. but never for the boater safety card.
