I'd like to point that I don't care what they do on open water... I'm just pointing some jerks out there simply to give us a hard time. I'm well aware of cigar boats planning, however, once they cut power they settle down to create a big wake... And time to time I noticed that those jerks do it intentionally... Such as U turns around you in close quarters... Power cutting close to you and powering up again... How do I know those actions are intentional? Because they shout at you from their cockpit...
There was an accident on CT river last season, the power boater crush a sailboat killing one and injuring another... IMHO, rivers and shorelines are not playgrounds.
They can do whatever they wanna do out there on the open water... I'm complaining for rivers and channells...
