Do Not follow this boat !!!!

[spotted123]

Today was the 2nd time in recent days that a boat (2 this time) ran aground while tracking me in Estes Flats. I do not run in the boat lanes. I am assuming that boaters not familiar with the area see a boat running and think they can follow"wrong"! I have an extremely shallow running boat so I can go where I want to go without tearing up the grass and running aground. I am not a guide and to be honest with you probably just an average fisherman. I know I am singing to the choir here on 2-Cool, but I hate to see that pretty gelcoat all scratched up and the muddy mess made trying to get unstuck. My rant for the new year!

Looks like a pretty skinny boat. Feel sorry for the guys who were following you.

That's what you call loosing a tail on the water.

I had the same thing happen a while back in west galston bay.
When I left the dock a rather large bay boat v-hull type was launched and idleing out of the cove.
When I ran by him he musta thought, hey just follow that guy.
I always run over a rather shallow sand bar in that cove as thats just my route when leaving.
I knew he wouldnt make it and he didnt but it was a lesson learned on his part. I didnt tell him to FOLLOW ME. He was still floating as it looked like his motor hit so he just idled back toward the channel, rather deeper part of the cove...

Stop doing heat runs to lose the man!!!!!

Your boat and that Majek RFL in the succeeding video would make for an interesting challenge.
