I've been on this lake for many decades, and though businesses come and go, I don't recall an inordinate number of marina owners going out of business; those that did probably went under because they were bad businessmen, not because of a lack of business.

True, should this bill pass, there might be some things that change, but not all of them would hurt marina owners. You might actually see more boats that you do now; I know quite a few people who own boats of a more appropriate size that rarely get out on the lake; if the passage of this bill leads to less oceanic waves, you'll see those boaters actually boating again... and buying gas (among other things) from marinas, eating at more on-the-water restaurants, and so on.
