Exclamation Want a compromise??? Probation!

Pass, then suspend HB-162 indefinitely.

Reinstate it immediately upon the occurrence of a NH freshwater double-fatality attributable to a powerboat!

No exception, no excuses:

Hit-and-run, alcohol-related, suicide, divers, water-skiing, Jet-Ski, Poker Run, sanctioned speed event, avoiding floatplane, right-of-way issue, tubing, hit-and-run—operator not located, wrinkled diver flag, no lights on struck vessel, victims under 16-years-old, dock collision, kite-boarding, drunk passengers, drunk skiers, avoiding a surfacing loon—no exceptions.

This should put most responsible boaters on eggshells: Who wants to be remembered as being the one to enable HB-162?
