What is your rule?
So we are going for the first time this year and our rule as always been no other family or friends...just in case. My son was really bummed.
 Just wondering if anyone else has first time out rules. I hate to dissappoint him, but I just feel it's a little safer.

I had this rule but the kids are bigger, stronger, and meaner than I am. Couple of years ago they beat the crap out of me over this rule, its no longer a rule. Shut up and drive Dad....or, Captain Fatty...

We typically don't take anyone else on the first run of the year either, although it is not one of our 'rules'. I reserve the 'rules' for things like, no cheetos, oreos, or fried chicken!

There's definately liability in taking/pulling others, but I have alot of fun with our friends on the lake and wouldn't let that stand in the way of time spent having fun.
I would only bring along people that I generally trust though.

You get to know people really well when you are on the same boat for any length of time. I choose wisely who I take, especially overnight. Unless they all have bikinis, then I can put up with Cheetos, tubes, and battery operated devices. Usually the wife won't let these types come, well, she does not let them come, I see them in other peoples boats.
Off Topic but funny, at Lake Mead at the dock filling up, kids, wife, and two labs are in the shop getting food, going to the bathroom, God knows what! Boat behind ours was filled with young ladies, around 25 years of age. Lucky guys had a boat full of girls, and they were in a crap Bayliner that looked like it was 15 years old. Here I am in a new X55 loaded, some bumping tune playing that my daughter put in, and these young girls are starting to talk to me. Nice boat! Where you from? 15 seconds of fame was great, then here comes the entire family around the corner. My 18 year old daughter just starting laughing out loud saying check out Dad, I think the word pervert actually came out of her mouth. Get everyone loaded up, wife looks at me and says…nice, real nice honey! (she was teasing) Later that night out of the blue my 9 year old boy came asked me in a loud voice what those girls wanted…. I said son, we will never know…. I love my life! Seriously would not change a thing, but if I was single, had this boat, it would never leave the dock. These MasterCrafts are eye candy at the dock. People just start asking questions.
