I think the biggest problem is that you will never make everyone happy. I have been in all 3 situations...maggot, driftboat and jetsled.

I have watched rude bankies, rude driftboaters and rude sledders. I have also witnessed sledders go totally out of there way to give the bankie or the dude in the driftboat plenty of room and the sledder stills gets the finger.

If I am in a driftboat or fishing from the bank, you have no need to slow down. Just give me as much room as you safely can...and if you must cut it very close to me, so be it...eventhough I am jealous of your 22' Super V with your 225 Yamaha tiller, I do not want you to damage your boat and/or put yourself in danger to give me extra room. It is very kind but not necassary...
