I'm more in agreement with Brandon's approach; the world needs more patience than it does anger, and if you happen to get on friendly speaking terms with someone, it's much more likely you'll be able to change their behavior for the better than if you blow up at them. But anyway... I also like this

But you have to keep a straight face, and fidget alot while you are doing it. And do mention you called KDFWR, and they said they's be here as soon as they ramp in.

After that, evert couple miuntes, say loudly....."Bill.....where are you?"
My idea was to keep a CD player on your boat, and when someone gets too close, put on "Achy Breaky Heart" on repeat, at about volume 6. If that doesn't work, switch to some hip hop or AC/DC or the soundtrack to some Dora the Explorer cartoons (which we keep in the car for my daughters.)
