but, is it posible that Director Barrett is responding to all the talk last Winter about the excessive drinking that sometimes goes on at the sand bars being a major safety problem?

Enforcing the "No Rafting" rule provides a tailor-made opportunity for the marine patrol to perform a close check of what's going on and establish a strong presence!

I really can't imagine any other reason that would justify a five boat raid on a sand bar, while taking their eye off Captain Bonehead and all his relatives elsewhere on the lake.
