In six years of boat ownership, I've drank alcohol while onboard just once while underway. I just don't feel comfortable doing it. Plus I usually have my nephew onboard and the responsibility is immense.
In fact most of the people I boat with don't drink on the boat either. I've never said "no" but I think they know I'm trying to set a good impression. But once we get back at the ramp and the boat is on the trailer - well let's just say GIDDYUP! That's when we have a beer or two washing the boat down and lying about all of the fish we caught.
