I'm always on the water with friends... but I'd be more than willing to chat it up w/ whomever!  As long as I'm not hooked up that is  :smt003
We're gonna need a bigger boat!

I think we're pretty approachable on the water....just don't get offended when someone tries to pass you a bowl.  :smoke :smt033

Sounds like for the most part people are pretty mellow with others saying hi, coming closer.  I will be less "shy" from now on.

While I don't smoke, I consider it a compliment when someone offers. Home grown or bought... Stuffs $$$ when I decline, it's not a judgement thing and it's good to be considered one of the crew anyway...
my new name should be Ostridge. Got my head in the sand. Going fishing and letting go of the other stuff I can't control anyway!

Before I started I used to always wave at everyone even when I'm paddling but now there are so many new people that I've given up on waving.  :smt044 also been seeing so many people without pfd and cold immersion clothing. I'm tired of preaching the same shit over and over again.

If I see kayaks I usually aim the bow of my boat straight at em and head straight for em to say hi......but they just wind up swearing real loud at me.  yakers are so salty these days.

And, I wear a mask for UV protection so anytime I try to talk, it's all mumbly anyway. 

Same as me, but without the mask.

Actually, I find the mumbling thing pretty useful. When I mumble and point, people seem to hear something like "there are big fish over there", so they paddle away and leave me alone. But, what I really say is, "Paul is dead". Works every time!
