Every time I go boating I end up losing all my firearms to the deep blue....

My advice is to watch "Our Man", played by Robert Redford in the movie All Is Lost and: DON'T DO THAT!

I’m 56 and been operating a boat since I was big enough to sit on Daddy’s lap and hold the steering wheel. I fully agree with these tips.

Once I got called over to a dock by the Coast Guard. I was drinking out of a can inside a hugger. the first question was what was I drinking. I pulled the can up to reveal that it was O’Doul’s. Then I was asked for my ID, I gave them my retired Navy ID. They proceeded to do a courtesy safety check, during which I was producing what I was required to have faster than they could ask for it.

Sadly, I no longer have a boat. Had to sell it to retain a divorce lawyer.
