Arrow Target the 'Boneheads'

I have been saying all along. But the staunch supporters and opponents blindingly go about their business attacking everyone but the boneheads. The issue that has brought us to this in the first place! Why can't we take a look at the existing laws and see their merits and faults. Then take a look at what the feds use to control waterways in the name of safety. After all, Why reinvent the wheel???
I believe this approach will provide a great compromise and lick the problem(s) to boot! Have it done right the first time!

I would like to ask the political science departments at UNH to take a look at the NH and Federal boating laws. And take a look at the arguments set forth be Wiinfabs, NHRBA, NH Bass Federation and NH Lakes Association. Also take a look at the Winnipesaukee.com speed limit forum and see where there is a common ground to move forward on. Having folks 'outside the box' give us an honest opinion of what will work. The political science dept can also conduct a statewide poll with an unbiased intelligient view of what people want. This will be a great exercise in democracy for our future lawmakers and provide an honest view of what other people thinks should be good for NH boating.
