Watched a marine patrol officer on the ICW in NJ for an hour or so last Summer. Poor guy had to pretty much ignore 3 out of 4 obvious infractions because he could not issue tickets fast enough. This is an area without a 150 foot rule, so you can imagine just how bad the infractions were. I saw PWCs and small boats on-plane between waders and the shore at a very busy island beach/sandbar. Aslo saw people just drive right over other people's anchor rodes and yank the other boats sideways.
