Not that anyone would try this in their C-Dory!

I'm afraid I stop long before it gets that narrow. Here's another one.

Hmmmm, Darwin Award material. How long until they pop around a corner and run over a kayaker or swimmer...

Exactly what you want to see as you poke along at 3 knots, is a PWC at 20 knots in your face…. Too bad the ban on them did not last. Some feel because it is legal to run after dark (often without lights) in Az, it is OK in Utah.

Agree with Steve on the "Darwin award". Last time we were on the lake there were two deaths in two days in the Gun Site area--one related to a PWC the other just swimming "to the bank". Not sure what happened to that one. There were still looking for the bodies several days later.

We encountered one of these jackasses at Powell.

It certainly not what we were there for.
