Nonlakers

The lake locals have a term - Nonlakers. These are a few actual statements about nonlakers I made after a crowded, busy and very long week at Deep Creek Lake. I can't wait until after Labor Day when we get the lake back. Feel free to add your own.


Sure, its OK to pass us WOT within 15 feet.

Nice look....on you....ever hear of sun block?

Does that massive tower mounted on your boat pick up NPR?

No, she's NOT hot and NO super dark tans will not help it either.

You can put it in a plastic cup all you want but I know your drunk.

You can fit another dozen or so people on that pontoon boat easy!

No problem at all. Go ahead a ride 50 feet behind the skier I'm towing!

Don't worry about that massive wake your making for no reason. It will only wash over my open bow and soak my small kids.

No, were not trying to teach a 5 yrs old girl how to ski. Go ahead and play 'kill the guy in the tube' in this calm cove.

Besure that the, um..ah.."ladies" in the boat keep dropping the F bomb more often than they say "like, I was" and "ya know"

Can you turn up that that god awful - whatever the heck you call it - blaring music from the speakers mounted on the tower of your parents crappy boat!

NO! You do not have the right of way!

Hey, *#@hole! Your skier dropped about 1/2 mile back. Hang up and turn around and look if you don't believe me!

Have you ever tried the get in early for good water method? It's great till you have had enough of it and head back to the ramp. So much ignorance in one location, it's scary. Seriously.

...and apparantly as soon as I pull the kids skiing all the fish swim up to my dock. Why else would fisherman be parked blocking it when I return about 5 minutes later. You know the guys that launch all those new weeds from the swamp they were at yesterday. Luckily the second best fishin hole is the middle of the slalom course, the one with the convienient buoys to anchor to so they won't drift.

Tim, move to Aurora shores, i bet if i went to the lake right now i might see one boat...we removed 75 docks because no one was using them..plus i could use your boat lol, I actually brought that up to the pres of the association to start leasing dock space because of the lack of use of the lake

"Oh no, thats fine, no matter how many times I see a jet skier whip it around and plunge the nose, its just as impressive as the first time"

"Be sure to keep your eyes on your tuber at all times, much more important than looking straight ahead"

"Oh no, the sheriff won't mind if you have three kids sitting on your transom facing backwards while pulling your wakeboarder, he's not really interested in the safety of boaters around here."

"No, don't worry, it may look like a two lane boat ramp, but it really is designed for you to park right in the middle like that and take 45 minutes trying to figure out how to offload your boat."

"That sign that says no jet skis after seven doesnt apply to you."


(Note: all actual observations in the last two weeks.)

Pete, I hate to see you get in trouble with some rainbow coalition. You can't use the word gay (in any form) unless your talking about someone being happy. It's an ACLU thingy. So you'll have to go back to referring to them as bagliners. Personally I agree with you but now with Al Sharpton watching and Whitehouse fishy web patrol, well, ya can't be to careful

I hope I never have to (emotioncons), and "Have a nice day"!

Yes but...what about....




That wasn't my idea.

My apologies, I stand corrected. I had a couple of those "cloned" Cigarette boats. A Martini, a 24'Banana, and a Squadron X11. I think the first Mastercraft came off of a Nautique, Ski Supreme was built off a Mastercraft, Ski Centurion off a Ski Supreme, Brendella, Tige, American Skier all were plugs off one another. The way around the rules was if they couldn't fit exactly in the mold you could skate by.

I had a friend that owned a canoe mfg with 8 -10 different models that all started life as a Lincoln. He built a plug, made some canoes, cut some, lenghthened a couple, made one wider, added a square stern etc. He just kept plugging canoes and making molds.

Pete, did you see the color on that boat. That was a gayliner. (LOL)

and to make it even funnier, I have my eye on a 56 Ranchwagon almos the same colors and I think its cool. Go figure.
there, happy now, Ya got me getting all techy.

Deepcreek,
Just saw this post.
I was there the week of the 8th, WHAT A ZOO!!!!!
I've have never seen so many 60,000 dollar SAN and the like pulling tubes, that place has got to be the tube capital of the world.
I've been going there for over ten years but I think this year was my last. That whole week just sucked with all the traffic.
Unfortunately route 68 ruined that lake.
