Really hard to legislate common sense or intelligence let alone common decency. This is coming all over as has been said. The NH state legislature (house) has just passed a 45 mph spped limit on their state waters and now it goes to the Senate for their take on it. For most states it is a factor of too many people wanting to go fast on the water and too little water for them to do it on safely. Coupled with limited education requirements, weak licensing requirements and even more limited enforcement capability and it should not be considered odd that we have a mess. I was at the training center for the CG in York town VA a couple years back and there were water craft enforcement types from all over the country there comparing notes and training. Doubt we have seen the end to this. But hey my boat will do a stately 32 mph so I should be ok. Hmmmmm kind of worried about my partners Gambler though.

WHEW, I thought I might get some input but had NO idea this would be such a hot button issue. From reading the posts it sounds like if everyone including jetskiers would show common courtesy and common sense the problem would be solved but those two commodities are  increasingly getting in short supply. Thanks for the input.  BC57
