I think most contientious boaters would agree with a 25-MPH night time limit, although many of California inland waters have very low night-limits, including no-wake-at-night. (California, where trends
start).
"Reasonable and Prudent" seldom passes the "unconstitutionally-vague" test. We've already seen how a "mere"
kayaker can seek a remedy on a Marine Patrolman's charge of "no-PFD-on-board" at the NH Supreme Court.
"Reasonable and Prudent" would be very short-lived -- triggered as soon as the first well-heeled speedboater was cited.

There are
already switchable exhausts on Winnipesaukee: I've observed them being switched...off and on and off and on...in our
residential neighborhood. The MPs just haven't caught them -- as yet.
The whole "switchable" idea is to make lots of noise at times. Unless you've been away for 20 years, there's a lot more Winnipesaukee'ers to irritate now.
