Default Florida Keys Dinghy Operation

There has been a lot of discussion about the proper way of operating a
dinghy in the Florida Keys, some of which has been well intentioned
but somewhat misinformed. There is really only one proper technique
in the Keys, and those who have actually cruised there will recognize
it immediately. A picture is worth a thousand words:

It is nice to see you and Don doing your best to trash a boating related
thread.

There's one thing I like about inflatables and that's how easy it is to cut
or puncture them with a sharp knife after some fat butthole wakes me with
one and I see it later sitting at a dinghy dock. Just row up next to it and
tie up and while doing so discretely stick it a time or two with something
sharp like the knife from my Leatherman.

You need to take some anger management classes.

We can only hope someone comes up and does that to you (and not your
dinghy).

You bring him by Charleston. Our gators need feeding, piece by piece.

Whew... don't hit anything or you'll do a flip in front of the dink, then
get chewed by the prop.
