I used to have a small sailboat that I would sail here on the Columbia River in Portland, Or. before I switched to a canoe and kayak. I remember sailing along peacefully and quietly when I looked on the horizon and saw and HEARD two jetskis. Well, they spotted me and zoomed out to me and proceeded to run circles around me Doing assorted tricks and whatnot, as If I cared. What a nuisance! Nothing like ruining a peaceful quiet sail. As far as I'm concerned They're nothing but motorcycles on the water. Noisy, Loud, Obnoxious.( I have nothing against motorcycles on land, mind you-except the real loud ones) Varoom!
