Summer Lover,

When you say that the ban will not improve anything, keep in mind that your feelings are just your opinion. My opinion is that it will greatly enhance things at Martin. I will not have to hear these Jet Engines over a mile away screaming up and down the lake attempting to intimidate anyone or anything in their path. It will be comforting not to have to see these balding, fat, drunks, overcompensating for their lack of real power in real life by running a loud, fast, ocean going vessel on LM.

Of course these idiots will push the limit and end up causing the very thing they claim to fear and that is growing regulation. It will not affect Bass Boats or PWCS but rather the "near banned" boats they are seeking now. Ironically it is the banned "victims" refusal to acknowledge why they were "singled out" that will drive further bans on their boats...

In fact I had a diuscussion just two days ago with a person with the power to introduce legislation who said 95mph boats near the banned length will be targeted if they pop up everywhere acting the same way...looking forward to it :)
