You are so correct. The issue is the way this law hit the books, and the limited thought that went behind it. I own one of the large boats under 30'6" and under 60mph. On the way to the rock this Saturday I had to slow to cross a wake of a 29' cruiser plowing down the lake at non planing speed. There were also 3 kids on the bow of this boat drinking beer while they were under way. Point? You cant legislate stupidity, and stupid legislation is not the answer. The state budget is in the red and this new law tasks the 4 or so busy Marine Police with shortly having to enforce this with limited man power. I want to see the Marine cruisers watching for the for mentioned act, than be out with a tape measure to see that the boat that I operate in a safe manor is legal or not. Every weekend I see idiots acting like they are the only people on the lake. We all need to stop being so passive when dealing with these people. Don't ask me how to do it but maybe this string can help with some good suggestions. Please refrain from bashing on this one and provide some useful solutions.
