I wonder if the issue has ever been petitioned by boaters to change the law.
I would sign it! 
I would gladly, pay an anchoring fee if imposed as well... |
The no overnight anchoring law was repealed for awhile in the 70s. I can clearly recall how happy it made my parents and the fun I had as a kid cruising from our slip in Robert's Cove to the other end of the lake and spending the night on the hook.
The law exists to protect the peace for lake front home owners on the off chance that someone is loud and obnoxious during night time hours. I HATE this law because it punishes everyone for the few who might disturb the peace, something that is already against the law.
