Idiocy on the High Seas

Have you ever seen a Washington State Ferry collide with a pleasure boat?

On Friday, I came close to seeing exactly that.

Shortly after 6:30pm on Friday, I felt my boat go into reverse-thrust, and when I looked out the front window to see what was going on .. this is what I saw:

Ferry and Sail Boat

Apparently, Seattleites are not just shitty drivers.

    To quote Caddyshack, “Hey, your boat dented my anchor!”

    Shouldn’t it be a lot easier for a sailboat to get out of the way than a Washington State Ferry? didn’t look like whoever was on the sailboat gave a shit. Attempted suicide by ferry?
