Me too!   

I just throw a 5 spot in the box and never see anyone except those little Yorkie's, or whatever it is that they breed, down there during the Winter.    

I don't expect that psycho dingleberry to be around much longer.  Eventually (hopefully) somebody is gonna discover where he hides his bodies and he'll get sent away for good.

He sounds like a "This is my show and I'll show you who's boss" kind of guys. Yea, it won't take long for the people to figure him out and stop going there. Maybe there's a select few that love that kind of stuff And think he's cool. 

I went to Canada 8 years in a row when I was single. We went to a lodge that was on an island in Rough Rock lake near Minaki. It was a divine memory. The last 2 years of the 8, an Ex fighter pilot bought out the original owner (who owned it for 30 years), and took over and scared everyone off. He thought the entire lake was his personal aquarium and demanded full compliance on every detail of your stay. The biggest thing that sent him over the edge was someone bending a skeg, or dinging/breaking a prop on the rocks. Since this happened every week 2 or 3 times in the camp, you could hear him screaming at the people. Everyone who went there knew the protocol and always knew they were responsible for the repairs but this guy wanted to make an example out of everyone.... His business took a major hit is all I can say.

There are several resorts here on LO where the owner, or a certain worker, take it on themselves to be the No Wake Police.  If they see someone motoring by above what they consider idle speed they will immediately stop what they are doing, run out to the end of their dock as fast as they can, and start waving their arms and screaming at them.  One of my I/O mechanic friends has this affliction and it doesn't matter how deep he is in an engine compartment.....he will break his neck getting out of there to run 100 yards and raise hell with No Wake violators, and you had better not get in his way or he'll mow you down.   I asked him one day how the hell he ever got anything done around there?   He just shook his head and said "Well these ******* just don't GET IT !". 

We were at a parts store recently and we were all standing around BSing. Homeboy announced that he was gonna retire after next year and somebody asked what he was gonna do after retirement.  I said, I know what he'll do, he will put a Lazy Boy out on the end of the dock, he will have an air horn in one hand and a megaphone in the other.  There's no way he can ever give up screaming at boaters, it's his favorite thing to do. I told him that if he ever died I was gonna put a No Wake bouy over his grave.  "Here lies Merlin...NO FREAKIN' WAKE!!!"
