Guess it’s kinda “ not forgetting where ya came from” mentality.

What’s the real hurry that anyone has to wake another boat anywhere .

On the reef guys come flying in bouncing all over right between boats drifting .

No one likes to drive a boat faster than me , but I always give everyone wide berth or slow down till I’m past them .
Possibly injuring someone else isn’t worth the 4 seconds you save backing off.
