When we first moved to Florida, we joined a boat club. One day, we took a pontoon once to an offshore beach. Anchored it right by the shore and went about beach combing and sunbathing. We fell asleep. Next thing you know, the pontoon was completely beached and we couldn’t push it back into the water…not even with the help of 7 strong men on the beach. Had to call for help to be rescued. We were charged a fine, plus the gas for the boat that rescued us, plus wages of the crew that had to go back 12 hours later to retrieve the boat. That’s a mistake you only do ONCE.
