If I ever catch someone chillin on my boat while at the dock I'm going to press charges so fast they wont know what hit them.

On Wed I went down and checked out the boat around noon. It was nice and clean as usual.

Today I go down after work and as I'm just hanging I notice there's dirt and dog hair all over the back seats!! WTF.

This means someone took the top off, and let his/her dog chill in the back seat of the boat, meanwhile who knows if they were on my boat or not.

No water bird had hair that would look like a dog does it? I know some swans hang out at the dock but I know what a feather looks like.

Have you ever caught anyone hanging out on your boat? I hope this doesn't happen again. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

many folks these days have no respect for others at all.
if it isn't locked up, it's fair game. even if it is locked up sometimes... very sad indeed...

sorry about your woes..

How sure are you that it's dog hair? Maybe the local feline is on rodent patron and doing you a favor.

Sounds like a kitty to me. A dog would have chewed the seats also...

How would an animal with no help from humans unclip my mooring cover and then put it back perfectly clipped. there's no real way for a cat to get onto the dock unless it swims.

We have a cat that hangs out at our docks... likes to hop the boats and check things out.

Ziggy's right.. people have very little respect these days.

None of my dogs have chewed on anything but their toys. Cats are MUCH more likely to do damage to seats with their claws.

Regardless of animal type, if a person allowed it on your boat that is very, very low! I'll never understand how someone would think it OK to climb onto another person's property!

DUDE! I'm soooooo sorry! Me and Lucky were both drunk and we accidently confused your boat with mine..... Don't sweat it tho.... Lucky peed on the carpet but I was thoughtful and peed over the side.... mostly......

The real crapper is a LOT of folks would think that was a perfectly good excuse...... I'd seriously blow a gasket.....



Sorry bout your luck tho.... look REAL close...... a cat doesn't need more than about a 2" gap to squeeze through.

I'd have to be really careful with my words if I were in either of these situations. The last thing I would want is an escalation of tempers. Especially mine. Glad your talking charges, Jeff.

Bry, you are one stable individual.

wow! lately i've been seeing what looks like kids control there parents they say tehy want something and mommy and daddy cant say no! that is rude if you were filling up and they had askd you its one thing but to just hop in while your nto around and not even ASK. i think id end up gogin to my truck and grabbing my billy club on another note that may be a little over kill.

i would check with the marina tell them and they might start watching around there a little more closely not that they are liable for anything but they might have cameras to aid in your charges? worth a look see

When I was docked in the Dominican Republic, cruise ship folks would come down to the marina and hang out. I can't tell you how many times I have caught people hopping onboard, sitting in the fighting chair for a photo op. Most were foreiners that didn't understand English but I think they figured out what the f-bomb was pretty quick.

I hope you can put a stop to whomever or whatever is violating your property, Thajeffski

i had a lot of things going through my head that i wanted say, but then there was a kid around. so i tried to bite my tongue, but you are right, parents dont seem to say no to kids anymore and pretty much let them do what they please, but that could be a different forum all together lol

cheers buddy
