Amen! Not too many big boats come into our slough, but we have pontoons and PWC's that come in way too fast. We've had waves so rough that they rocked the bumpers up onto the docks. We've had boats towing small children on inflatable floats coming in way too fast and almost throwing their kids into docks when they make a sharp turn.

In my (humble) opinion, the real issue is one of common courtesy and safety. Going too fast in small areas, cutting across in front of other boats in open waters, driving too close and too fast near other boats - all are dangerous to everyone.
