After a few experiences like that you start to not care so much about boaters rights.
It's always a slipper slope BI, no pun intended

You are quite a bit different when discussing Your rights as opposed to trampling on others. Some folks may Feel scared when seeing an unattended 8 year old bombing around near their docks, boats, maybe even campers swimming. That's fine with you, you want your kids to have that "right". Maybe it's better if we ban them only when they hit 13?

BH is logical suggesting rafting areas in more isolated areas. I think many of you guys would do well to learn from Hazelnut, who tries to include everyone when discussing these topics, not just himself.

You mention that you used to boat for many years on Winni before you had a place. I guess there weren't many folks around like yourself back then to make your trips more miserable.
