Jetski's

Time for a GRIPE !

Where I was sailing in turkey, 500 yards down the beach they were hiring jet ski's/wet bikes to tourists, it's an accident waiting to happen with people going flat out without any obvious control through a sailing area with beginner windsurfers.

Still scored one back for the windsurfers when one guy who was doing doughnuts next to some kids in dingeys came off in front of me, what could I do other than 20knts+ in the small gap between him and his jet ski, he looked concerned but I did smile and wave, and I think he got the hint and went off to play well away from the sailors.

Still a little common sense should be complusory for anyone on one of those noisy things.
