Re: "A bad day on the water"

Try to remember this.. a diver down flag means you stay at least 200 yards away from the boat, not 60 or 70 yards. There was a diver killed and one injured last week when boaters like you are too worried about how fast or cool they look and aren't paying attention to the water. I am a freediver and don't take kindly to people who carelessly put my life and those of others at risk.

first of all mr diver. i wasn't trying to look cool. second mr know it all, it's 300 yards not 200. i looked up the law when i got home becauce i'm not looking to put anyone in danger. i was just stating what had happend to me. but with you attitude try to "freedive" to the titanic, and see if u make it.

Re: "A bad day on the water"

Wow, I leave you kids home for a few hours to go to work at the sandbar, and I come home to all of this fighting. Dive regulations have been posted- you must be super careful out there and run a safe speed when you are anywhere near divers. On a rough day, a diver may get separated from a boat, and it's pretty tough to see a bobbing head at the water's surface. Spankings for both of you, and then off to your rooms- this thread is closed.
