Thanks Oz, I try to let this be a lesson for those whom like to add alcohol with their operation of motor vehicles, wether it be on the land or on the water. The young man didn't have either mine nor his father's (as far as I know) permission to use the boat. Makes for a bad situation all around, especially whenever anybody who knows me knows that as much as I like my Bud Light I have always been extremely strict regarding alcohol on the boat, in the plane and in the car...and my friend knew this!
Such is life. I have another friend who lost a relative whenever he smacked his jet ski into the side of his buddy's boat weekend before last as they were mixing up alcohol and boating...these fellows were all paramedics and firemen.
