We're down at the boat getting ready for our trip tommorrow morning. A couple of young kids come flying by in a 16' wooden skiff w/ dog in tow. Clearly flying thru our No wake zone. I hollar out at them to slow down....they just wave and keep rolling.
Fast forward to 30 minutes later, I look out and see them paddling back. I do a double take and notice that they have no motor!! My dinghy is sitting beside the boat and it would have been easy to give 'em a tow, but screw em. They weren't in danger and learned a lesson. The picture of the kid sitting at the stern of the boat with his head in his hands was priceless!
