I got popped for a DUI driving home from a bar......It was actually a night club but I told my wife it was a bar, maybe that's why I got busted. Anyway, if I add up all the cost which includes court cost, lost time at work, insurance deductible, increase in my insurance rate, court ordered counseling classes, court ordered AA classes, the cost to travel to and from community service, the lost overtime on Saturdays which I couldn't work because I had to do community service, and so on and so forth...................$15k. That was 20years ago, can't imagine what it would cost today.

Man, I was so stoned the first time I paddled out. Surf launch on an ocean 6 foot. Rods in scupper holes. Sittin in water. Didn't flip once.

I can't imagine the type of attention one would have to bring to themselves to get a cop to stop a kayaker on the water cause of a beer in their hand.

I'd bet $1.54 that no one on this site has ever been given a DUI while paddeling or peddeling on the water. UNLESS of course you and your kayak ended up washed out to sea and the USCG and local law enforcement/public safety were out looking for your drunken passed out ass. Or you get hit by a boat (your fault or not).

IF I'm wrong, and someone has been busted for drinking while, going to or coming from fishing, I'll pay the $1.54. Cold hard cash and coin.

You'll just have to come up here are get it. OR if you are near la jolla, just call when me when the bite is WFO and I'll meet you on the water down there.
