[QUOTE="TANSTAAFL, post: 4236283, member: 27098"] Love boating on large bodies of water. I had a license at age 14 with the ability to pilot boats up to 66 feet in length, 660 HP per engine. Ironic I ended up in Oklahoma. the 4th of July Fireworks on the Detroit River was always fun, but dangerous. Lots of boats, lots of drinking (not me if piloting, or if I saw the captain drinking.) Invariably many boats ran aground, collided, struck floating objects and sunk. On one Fourth of July weekend saw a boat just below the surface, a cabin cruiser drifting in the lake, dozens of empty beer cans floating along side. That told the story. Actually kind of neat to watch recoveries of sunken vessels, a barge with a crane was used. [/QUOTE]
