Some type of basic course should be required even if only basic reading of no wake signs.How many times you been fishing and some ding-dong in a 30+ come within 50 ft of you full steam ahead oblivious to what his wake is doing?????do they know they are responceable for it(say what??)--The ones coming the opposite way on a channel that turn across your bow( like 30 ft away) to pull into a marina.(OH sorry I was in your way). unfortunately this list is endless. These courses offered by the power squadron and the coast guard aux. are great and I*ve even taken the navigation course a few times over the years.God forbid the electronics go out and someone would have to look at the MAP--(a chart).wow look at all the red and green thingys--we can tie up to them. And yes I*ve seen guys stop and drop anchor right in the middle of the CC Canal and start fishing in front of the corps of engineers station. One has to wonder how many know its a 10 mph speed limit through the whole thing. I saw a guy stopped at gun point once coming thru there at 65mph in a 41 ft chris craft stinger.Shouldn*t talk about family though.
