NH's revised requirement for mandatory PFDs for those under thirteen (13) years of age has it's foundation in US Coast Guard regulations. Got a problem with that?
NH's observer age and 'assist' requirements as well as the number of people you tow are laws that you all put in place years ago and are founded in common sense and experience. Got a problem with that?
Dont' like common sense, caution, courtesy? I might suggest taking your boating recreation to other states that conform to what you think the law(s) should be. Sorry to be that way but we won't miss you and we will have more fun on our lakes without having to watch out for the likes of you endangering us and adding to the accident/death statistics.
I've seen a lot of whining in these forums but to jeopardize the lives of those you are towing by thinking that an 8 year old or an 88 year old can do what is required is your attempt to subvert the intent of the law.
Just MHO
