Default Dangerous boating

Out fishing today for blackfish in a shitty swell. It took a little while to get them to chew, but once they did it was stupid fishing. 3 guys totaled 66 keepers in 3 hours to 11 lbs only keeping our 3 man limit. The dangerous boating part was part free entertainment, as good as it gets, coupled with absolute idiots who didn`t have a clue of what they were doing.
While we were bailing fish a boat (Tuna Pursuit) tries to anchor 4 times about 100 feet away from us off our bow. No problem there... After trying 4 times they were unsuccessful due to them using a ridiculously small wreck anchor for the size of the boat, let alone the conditions. They wondered why they couldn't hold with them trying to anchor on a broad based area of rock with so little scope that it was a LMAO moment. These guys did not belong on the water.
So now as we think the entertainment is over, these dicks decide to do a complete circle 30 feet from us in an attempt to steal the spot we were on. These idiots didn't even have a clue that we had a fair amount of scope out on our anchor of which they were going right over. Talk about not being aware of your surroundings with a real shitty swell today.
Are things that bad that you have to risk the lives of passengers on 2 boats? It`s times like this that I would have loved to have had a 5 minute conversation on land with this irresponsible a hole, who in his mind was protected by the 30 feet of water between the 2 boats. Please for every boaters safety get a clue!

You have to take a driving test to get your Auto drivers license and you see how people drive in this state. With boats there is not test and by your description no brains required to operate a boat, so what would you expect.

They almost took our anchor lines out twice then proceeded to almost run over a smaller Parker center console next to us

The guys were total idiots. Coming 30-40 feet off of our bow with a pretty good sized swell pushing them right at us. Almost caught our anchor lines a few times

I was out there too. The guy was comedy, but totally dangerous. My joy was watching him toss over his marker buoy that used the same size anchor he was using to try to hold his boat.

He kept doing donuts at a silly high rate of speed for what seemed like no reason

Talking Re: Dangerous boating

All this amusement should have been caught on tape and put to Benny Hill music.

I was the guy in the Parker center console and that guy was a flaming A-hole. every time we swung on a fish he came closer. He circled us and set up right on an anchor line, it's easy to buy a boat but you can't buy a clue.
