You make my point: At speeds over HB162's 45, your vest becomes a burden. It could stay on but others (like SOTW's Poker Run) have been torn off.

Ok here is a big problem I have. Deception in quoting people. Clearly you are missing my point and have left out the one part of my comment that matters. HB 162 has absoluely nothing to do with safety while wearing a PFD while skiing and will not help save lives here either
I don't know if you ever water skied one ski but while cutting across a wake at 35 mph(the speed I ski at) you are traveling at least 45 mph+.
Thus here is the rest of my statement.
HB 162 will do nothing to help with this IMO. A skier going 40 mph still faces plenty of danger crossing a wake.

It's clear you haven't seen a MP "high-speed chase".

No I haven't as a matter of fact. Again you make my point and that point is I hope never to see one
If this law passes maybe I will get to see one since they will probably be a more frequent event..

Those young PWC drivers will become tomorrow's "Cowboys".
Look at how many can't control their GFBLs on Winnipesaukee doing stunts today. They learn all the wrong moves early—and they're the ones educated earliest through NASBLA. ('Just two more years left to mop-up the oldest boaters).
For example, is this activity consistent with "Maintaining a Proper Watch"?

I am sorry APS but sometimes I just don't get your posts. Now ths picture shows a PWC rider doing dougnuts and you keep talking about this. Can these guys do doughnuts at 45 mph +? This is a speed limit discussion. What you are discussing is education and I am totally for some new stricter education laws just not a useless speed limit . In fact I believe PWC incidents will get much worse if this law passes not better.
