Would you go boating in the rain?

Most of the boats in the bay at St. Augustine were moored. I didn't see any sailing during in the rain. There wasn't much wind, though. Would you go riding in a boat if it was just raining with no storm involved? I guess it would be risky, because you never know when thunder and lightning might start.

no, i don't like boating at all. because when i am in the boat in the river, then i will be very nervous, and sometimes i will have a bad headache, and throw up what i ate. it is a bad memory, so i don't go boating at all, since then.
i like walking in the rain. you can smell the earth. it is fresh and it seems that i was reborn.

Sounds like you get boat sickness. That would certainly make boating a bad experience! Thanks for the reply.

I wouldn't go boating in the rain because I have learned from my experience. My dad and mom took me years ago to a lake, and rented a boat. It was overcast, but we didn't think it would rain. But it did. We were on the lake and the rain just poured down, with no lightning or thunder. I didn't know I wasn't the only one worried. My dad told me later, despite how calm he was, he was concerned. The visibility was horrendous. So I wouldn't do it again. LOL

I have been on a boat in the rain, too. It wasn't too bad in the river, but I wouldn't want to be far from the shore! I can get scary!
