I was just wondering if anyone out there else feels the way I do about this. I'm a non-smoker and I feel that one of the best parts about long ranging is the ample amounts of ocean fresh air there is out there to breath. There is nothing like it!!!!! That's all cool, but it seems like every boat I get on, at least half of my fellow passengers love their smoking! Even though it is not allowed in most of the salons, most go just outside of it to enjoy their smoke. Most of the time the smoke gets sucked right back into the cabin. That sucks!!!!!
Some days I feel like I smoked a whole pack myself, after spending 12 hours at the rail, downwind from the smokers.That also sucks!!!!!
Now the bad part. I'd say about 90% of those butts are chucked into our ocean after they're finished. The ocean that provides us with food and entertainment and just an overall killer experience.
I'm sure I'll I'll get "ripped" for this post, but I was just curious if anyone else likes the fresh ocean air as much as I do. Peace, out.
I'm sure this won't change in my lifetime and I'll just grin and bear it, but can you imagine a smoke free fishin trip?
