Great post Carnac.. Things to consider:

1. Why is the law necessary. Because those the law is directed at brought it on themselves. You must be responsible for your own actions or the law will hold you responsible. 99% of the lake residents don't like loud, fast boats.

2. The bill is directed at non-navigable lakes because the Corps of Engineers makes the rules on navigable rivers and lakes.

3. Full time residents of boats dump raw sewage overboard--yes, there are pump out station in a couple of places, but don't fool yourself into thinking full time or even weekend residents use them.

4. Loud, fast boats are designed and built for open sea, not for lakes. Want to go fast, get a bass boat.

5. Don't need lobbyist or big money to influence this bill; just the 99% who favor it.
