my advice is stay way away from that area!!!,

if you do decide to venture close, make sure you have everything safety related...  

on a side note, i wouldn't be caught dead over there in my boat.

You will get a safety check.  If you are rowdy maybe a breathalyzer too.
Have lots of fenders.
Take lots of pictures.
I never wanted to get in the middle of that mess.  I have zero tolerance for drunks, even the female drunks not wearing a top.

Doc, Marc,
If you guys were 20 and stupid, you'd love it...that's all I'll say...

Oh, and I'm sure some of you have seen it around, but watch out for Hillsborough's latest toy...



Tax dollars hard at work, there... :?

With 9 out of 10 of these boat drivers drunk, I don't want to be anywhere around.

Gasparilla weekend?  Stay away from Tampa, especially Ybor at night...

Like I said, if you're 20 and stupid...OK, 25 and still a bit crazy (yeah, been there, done that...)...
