I believe the Winnfab target, once they get the SL wrapped up, will be boats displacing 5,000 pounds of water, not 5,000 gallons of water.

They do not want to come out and say boats weighing 5,000 pounds. They are smoking this new restriction with displacement of water. We all know if it is floating, it has displaced water equal to the weight.

For a reference, most boats of 28 feet in length weigh over 5,000 pounds!

Again folks, Winnfab's is not about safety. They are about exclusion. They use safety as smoke because it sells in Manchester where they have their surveys taken.
