What Should You NOT Do on a Boat ?
This is getting a bit serious and needs lightening up. We need more sex, more humour and well more……
What should you not do on a boat?
I know you should not have sex on anti-slip paint in a secluded bay. I have the scars to prove it.

Never ever stand up while the boom is crossing the cockpit, never whiz upwind and never under any circumstances piss off the cook.

I was taught by my sailor (USS Idaho 1920-23) grandfather not to light a big campfire on board any ship or boat.
