Government Agency Questions Boat Owner Fitness.

If my neighbour, who had two commands of Brit nuclear subs is anything to go by, he'll walk into a new job that'll pay him six times or more what the MoD ( Navy ) does. And his choice of company car.....

A leaked document today revealed a new Government ̶c̶o̶n̶s̶p̶i̶r̶a̶c̶y̶ consultation over worrying trends of lack of fitness amongst boat owners. This can lead to unecessary anxiety and a feeling of persecution.

On advice from the Surgeon General, boat owners would be required to take regular fitness tests designed around a carefully considered Body Mass Index number.

The test will be representative of a significant damage incident to a private boat and will have the challenging title of 'Are You Too Plump To Pump' and failure will result in an owners Compulsory Licence being withdrawn.

This will be backed up by specialist teams taking random blood tests in both marinas and anchorages specifically looking for evidence of substance abuse, excess alcohol consumption and traces of Sanatogen.

Any concerned boat owner is urged to write an outraged missive on their local boating forum immediately.
