Dr Birx; distancing through the summer

So what does that look like for boating, fishing, etc for you?
Granted it is a small part of all the issues most of us must deal with differently daily. But here goes;

Get out of vehicle at parking lot. Got hand sanitizer, cleaning wipes, gloves? reach down to unlock padlock securing launch service tender that I have access to during off hours. Gloves on? Or wipe it down before entering combination? Open latch for key, battery switch, tilt controls, steering wheel... wipe down or gloves? You with me?
Then after fishing, washing down, (oh yeah, the hose) and putting it on the mooring, I use the chrome grab rail to get my sorry butt into the empty/full launch.... Oh. am I wearing a mask to get on said launch, or am I now living with a sun blocking gaiter/mask around my neck during my waking hours...
Oops, I ran out of gloves, changing out to prevent contaminating my live bait with the bleach and chemicals in my wipes that I have been using... This could suck. And this was all considered fishing ALONE!!!
