Agree with George as well. We always try to be courteous to fellow sailors. It can get a little tricky at the Indians, we always try to get there first thing in the morning and give our ball up to the first boat in the queue after 90 minutes of snorkeling bliss. We wait at the ball and signal them in, then head out when they are coming in.
One year we were astounded to get there at around 8:00 AM and all balls were full from overnighters! Amazing. Some were still sleeping. Curtains drawn.
Our Captain just kept cruising through the field and got some folks up on their decks, after several circles and severe stares, and questions like "are you moving out soon?" some moved out and we were able to grab a ball. Some were still there when we left 90 minutes later. They were not even in the water, a few were eating breakfast.
My question for any of you who care to weigh in, is what would you have done, or what you might you do in the future, if you encounter this situation.
Thanks.
