Since when does towing a waterskier negate the 150' law??? I was sitting aproximately 100' off shore on my pwc with my 7 year old and another watercraft with an adult and another child on Saturday. We were just down from Camp Lawrence, sitting and talking. A yellow jet boat with a skier started coming towards us from the cove just in from the Camp Lawrence beach. We watched as they came closer, I figured that we was going to veer right and go out around us but he continued on. He proceeded to pass us 30' from my port side between us and land!!!
I raised my arms and yelled to him, he snarled back that I was blocking his line...??? You have got to be kidding me. Last time I checked the rule book there is no law about his "Line"... We were parked long before he came and regardless of that he still has the responsibility of staying 150' from us and from shore, which he completely ignored. he ignored our safety, his own, and his skier who was a child. He later returned to a camp in the cove on Bear, we certainly will be keeping an eye on this clown and his yellow Sugar Sand Tango...
Being that the area between Mark and Bear is a popular watersports spot we are noticing an increasing trend this year of boaters that have absolutely no clue what 150' looks like, nor do they even know how to properly tow a slier/boarder safely.
