I's a bit more common than you think.. but when you mention that what they are doing is actually illegal you get made out to be all the bad ones, I basically got run off a certain website for pointing it out :giveup: :giveup:Mainly been weeded out, but there`s a small minority that seem to think it`s ok to take a few "mates" out and charge them "diesel/petrol money".
Of course this practice is strictly illegal and normally hugely irresponsible as these boats don`t normally carry enough safety gear, liferafts, lifejackets, have high enough railings, qualified skippers etc. . . .
Nothing wrong with taking a few mates fishing, but taking money from them to cover costs, No, NO.
Enough of my rantings,
