Fish 595 Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 I'm confused. Is the problem a jetski going too fast? what has that got to do with discussing the murdering of someone? Jetski's are a known problem. There is also a known system of dealing with them. Getting all vigilante is one thing, and I understand the frustration around jetski's. But are you guys actually discussing the justification of homicide cause someone is going too fast on a jetski? What are you going to do? walk up to someone at the boat ramp and attack them with a filleting knife? Just breath in, breath out, count to ten, and get some perspective....

Steve Pope 104 Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 Interesting to note that all boats are at anchor, (not sure if that includes Dtwo's) yes the sea flea may piss you off re noise etc. but is he actually doing anything dangerous? I would have thought that the rules would / should apply when yachts / boats are under navigation. I saw something similar at Whakapirau, sea fleas zooming "safely" a spectator on the beach getting upset and agitated for no reasonable reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Black Panther 656 Posted January 9 Report Share Posted January 9 The only medical issue I have had on a boat in 50 years was a burn caused by a powerboat wake as girlfriend was draining spaghetti. Yes it's dangerous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well imagine if your kids are swimming around the back of the boat and the jetski comes around the front. So yes, it's obviously dangerous. It is also illegal and ignorant. The 5 knot law applies 200m from shore and 50m from other vessels. Clearly this guy doesn't know, doesn't care, or both. And to calm down those who would suggest murder would be a disproportionate response, I'll spell it out: the topic post was tongue-in-cheek. Take a breath. Breaking legs - too much?
