You are responsible for your wake...

Is the discourteous behavior on the water increasing or is it just me getting crankier as I age?
Was just on the boat at my dock when a power cruiser flew by our marina and the one next to ours leaving a tremendous wake. I got on the vhf and raised him and then blasted him; He responded "if you want boats to go slow you should have the coast guard put up no wake sign" I called him out for being unaware of both federal regulations and common sense. It occurred to me later that maybe he just didn't care. Geeeeesshhhhh! What an *******!
