As he approached the boat his first words were "I love sailboats."
It made me feel better, but I wasn't really worried, I've got all my documentation, two fire extinguishers, my throwable PFD, and everything else that could be possibly required.
"Howdy", I said back to him.
"I just came over to tell you a story because I think you will laugh, " he said.
"I'm always up for a laugh, what happen", I said.
"Well, we've gotten several calls complaining about a drunk boater. Miss ----- is an older lady in one of the waterfront houses. She's called several times."
"Really! "I asked?
"Yup, she said the guy in the sailboat is drunk! He can't drive a straight line to save his life. He goes this direction and then zigzags that direction and turns back to the way again."
"I'm afraid you may get some more calls, I've been going out several times per week..."
We had a good laugh, talked about sailboats, and then he left. A good experience overall. He didn't ask for any paperwork or act "official", just a nice guy.
