We can hardly wait for this grand occasion to be over and done with; used to be when we actually looked forward to it. Now we can only hope it goes by with a minimum of accidents, arrests, etc. Seems like the whole Miami population and then some, will be on Biscayne Bay and all the way down to Elliott Key on an assortment of floating contraptions blasting loud music.
This is one of the most dangerous weekends to be out on the water. Boats of all sizes at anchor in the most incredible places, boats rafting up, people jumping in the water and floating around from raft to raft; accidents waiting to happen. Too much alcohol and stuff to smoke and sniff. Boats don't mix well in this explosive environment. Let's hope the authorities will exercise some degree of control over the whole mess.
Now I like a good party as much as the next guy, OK? And I know this sounds like we're all a bunch of sanctimonious party poopers here. I don't care; being in the business I know that boats and alcohol don't mix. Please help us to keep Miami's Columbus Day celebration safe and fun for everyone.
