This whole 45 mph daytime and 25 mph nighttime speed limit debate is no laughing matter. Most of the 100s of messages about the proposed law in recent threads don't even qualify as debate IMHO.

I'm no statistician but I would want to see results from both marked and unmarked boats. Aircraft observations would also be interesting. The Marine Patrol conducting real world tests might have done the tests the same way they would put any new law into practice.

Just curious Islander, you and Bear Islander have the same last name. Are you related?
