I agree with you, but I am just repeating what he said at the hearing.
I recall at least two cases just last year alone where boats travelling at very high speeds flipped over while out all alone(one on the Broads at over 90 and one in Alton at over 70), yet I guess those were not "speed related" by his standards. There might be a recording of the RR&D hearing available somewhere...does anybody know?
You may recall that Director Barrett also testified a couple of years ago that a proposed no-wake zone for Center Harbor, like the one in Meredith Bay, would actually impair safety rather than improve it, because the no-wake markers would create safety hazards while there was no evidence that headway travel was any safer.
I'm just the messenger.
