I am the worst and assume everyone knows how to boat and about boats ? My ex wifes 1,2,and 3 all i tried to teach them boating skills, Wife #1 dumb as a box of rocks but i could show her something on the boat and she knew it and could handle it with out any worry, Twin 8.1's and she could take it from the dock to the inlet or down the ICW, Was very aware of her wake and would hail anyone she was about to slow pass. Wife #2 A Lawyer she would speed up when she was trying to slow down she would jerk the boat out of gear when we were underpower i stopped trying. Wife #3 Nope very smart in 10 years she was able to deploy the anchor along with all 250' of rode i had markings 20 ft from the end That i had explained what they where, Not a clue Gone!!! Current girl friend markers i have a note card laminated showing Red on right south bound on the ICW and North Bound it is on the left. I am looking through the tool box i hear the shallow alarm here we pass on the wrong side of the marker again. 1st wife was awsome show her once and she knew and remembered ? i just assume after someone tells you that you know but i must be the dumb one?
