According to today's "Outlook" Senator Ted Little was quoted as saying that he thinks a compromise will be reached on the 'big boat' issue. This compromise wil include some 'grandfathering' and exclusions for certain houseboats.

But IMHO, you can bet that some type of bill will be passed that limits the size of boats on inland lakes, as it should be. Alabama has been at the forefront of states that are starting to consider the implications of traffic on the waterways i.e. boating dirvers licenses. I like the BB and bowling ball analogy from below, well here is another one..... I wonder if the 'big boaters' would like if I roared up and down the street in front of their home in a Monster Truck that was designed and built for truck shows throwing a 30 foot flame, blasitng a couple of hundred decibals (sp?) and crushing anything that happened to be on the street. Or how about Carnival Cruise lines putting a few of their 300 footers in and cruising between Kowliga bridge and Wind Creek?
