Drinking And Boating Don't Mix.

[Clayton Will]

Do you have problems with boaters drinking?

I wasn't interested in going fishing with him out there.

Yes I have a major problem with drinking and driving of any type! Lost to many friends to people who cannot stay put when drinking.

That looked like it was a on partition ski boat. I never seen them going to fast. It looked to me like tour typical summer people boater. Come done to OLS next weekend and park yourself out in the middle of the lake around horseshoe bend somewhere and I can guarantee you these drunks ,or kids or whatever would look very mild indeed.

Were gonna camp on our pontoon at the marina next weekend here in stockton.Friday about 6-7pm all the drunks will show up cause they have had a good couple of hours to drink on the ride down here.Then when they get here they will all crowd the boat ramps packing their coolers and tubes and girlfriends and kids,and then trying to start their boat that hasnt been started since last labor day weekend(thats gonna be fun to watch)then all the drunk hoopin and hollerin on the docks and the campground later that night....Saturday morning will be quiet(cause everyone is sleeping or hungover) and were gonna scatter some catfish jugs and troll around for some walleye.After 1pm we probably wont venture out past the buoys.we will probably anchor ourselves within sight of all the marina traffic and watch all the fun start.Everyone goes real slow making their way out to the buoys while all the big boats and jetskis coming in going full blast until they get to the buoys(should be a good afternoon).Gonna camp on the pontoon at the marina and try to catch some meth-head tweakers lurking around the marina breaking into boats and lockers(maybe i can get my limit).I think everyone needs to shoot some videos this holiday weekend and next week we can all compare videos of the craziness on our lakes.

guess, I am part of the problem not the solution... Well Not the drunk boating stuff but that driving didn't look bad to me... I only watched about 2 minutes but it didn't look bad to me? The lake was wide open and they appeared to be having fun. Anyway, I guess you better never come to Lake of the Ocean on a Weekend, let alone a Holiday Weekend!

I am with Goggle -eyed, Looks like they are making a little shake down cruze to me, testing a new prop or some such. Kinda doubt the driver is "drunk". More likely drunk with his speed boat, enjoying the boats' capabilities......it is a ski boat after all. I wouldn't be afraid or even miffed inless he was doing it inside the no wake zone my boat was moored in.
