I really hope you're not seriously considering the paintball thing. A lot of different ways that could go in a very bad direction. A one-in-a-million shot could seriously hurt somebody. There might be a child on the boat. If there is , you are going to have one angry father on your hands. People snap. You might end up in a situation where you really have to stand your ground. And then, even if you were justified, a state attorney would be more than happy to prosecute you on grounds that you instigated the whole thing.. Pointing a gun at another boat might give the people in the other boat justification to stand their ground. The boat that you shoot at might have some really bad dudes on it but do not care about the law, and respond accordingly. You could get real unlucky and the boat might have off duty law enforcement on it. You would be screwed. If the people in the other boat record you shooting at them, you will probably get prosecuted for that. I know you would in Florida. You would be on the news also. Lawyers are not cheap. Good lawyers are really really not cheap. Good luck.
