Yes...different people
My observation is that there is a much higher average of people who need to be cool on powerboats then sailboats. It's the whole highschool attitude of "classes" or "Leagues" and the need to be in the right one. Many of the hot girls are still stuck in that mind frame and it takes a few years for them to catch on that it's all stupid. Same thing with the guys too....gotta impress the girl and a POWERFUL boat is impressive...to some that is...and they have all those cool paint jobs that the girls like.Another observation I've found is that the cigarette boats go zooming by and the guys are up front driving, holding onto a beer and the girls are sitting in the back holding onto their beer. Nobody is talking and nobody is drinking because of the bumpy ride and the loud noise. The guys are enjoying it because they get to drive and it's macho, but the girls...well...they like showing off their bodies but that's about all they seem to enjoy out of it. Sometimes I see the girls looking my direction and I can see their minds wondering "that seems relaxing"
as I go sailing with my feet on the wheel, my beer in hand and singing to the music.Just my observations.
