Great top down shot DA.    I guess if you need your boat out you have to give them a bit of a heads up as some of the bigger boats sandwiched in will take some time to remove.  They did maximize the use of available space.

Nice shot, and a great collection of small craft.  Are they light enough to be launched manually?

It is well-organized indeed. The last section maybe a bit less but that one's not exactly untidy either.

Yes and for once it seems well organised.

It does appear to be well organized.    

After I finished diving in the lake just after lunch today I had a bit of a confrontation with a couple of jet skiers.  I had my diving buoy up and prominently displayed as required but they kept buzzing right over me.  I had to be very, very careful while ascending to the surface.  Fortunately, during the back and forth with them I was able to memorize their registration numbers and reported them.  I also reported that both reeked of alcohol and were probably too intoxicated to be dirving jet skis.  Shortly after I got a call from the Local marine law enforcement asking if I wanted to bring charges against them for reckless endangerment.  Of course I said yes as they needed to be taught a serious lesson.  The officer said that most likely they will be fined and prohibited from operating jet skis for 12-18 months.  Both refused a field sobriety test so that had to submit a blood sample so they may face additional charges.  I told him I had no issues appearing in court to testify against them.

At some point it was given to the sea scouts,   but what happened then is a mystery to me ]

Sounds dangerous to me.    Seems a theme with Jet Skis though,  I saw a pair in the moorings the other day go screaming through creating a huge wake,  and a couple of the yacht people were screaming something at them.   I guess thats why so many places here ban them.

I own a jet ski and have nothing against them.  However, like anything else they need to be driven safely and the operators must respect marine laws such as no wake, diver areas, etc.  Law enforcement notified me that both are in jail now for Driving Under the Influence as their blood tests came back at twice the legal limit to be operating a motorized craft.  Making a weekend in jail will give them time to sober up and realize what idiots they are.

Yes,   I think that was the 1960's. Although I am beginning to doubt my understanding of the place.    I sent the drone along the coast there looking for any signs of all the rocks they loaded it with to stop it from floating too much but sadly I found no sign of them.

Thats nice and swift,   our legal system here couldnt do that.    Released the next day with a date to return usually.

Both could have been arrested and then released on bond but neither could post a bond so in jail they sit.

Maybe it has succumbed to the ravages of time.

I thought that as the hull had been filled with rocks that they might still have been visible.

If you do the crime be prepared to do the time.  They are due to be arraigned today and will see how many charges they face and if the bond will be increased.  They may be sitting in jail for quite a while.

You'd be surprised,    As a kid we went to the isle of white and we say some old guy filling a gold Granda with big rocks from one of the beaches.

Not for the initial arraignment as that will only require the Prosecutor.  The Prosecutor told me that he thinks they will plea bargain for lesser charges on the DUI but for reckless endangerment he is not going to allow a plea bargain.  He said they are looking at 5-10 years, especially consider their past track record.  He couldn't go into that but it doesn't bode well for them.

I can recall stuff from my youth a lot easier than things that have happened in the last 12 months - and occasionally the last 12 hours
