These threads still get out of hand I see...

Having been on the lake since 85, I can say that I have scene the speed limit do very little.... Hell when the decibel limit was first enacted, it did more to change the atmosphere of the lake then the speed limit.

I will also say that I see plenty of watercraft exceed the speed limit when it is safe to do so... (Probably some even when it is not so safe to do so).... in the end I think the legislation is still a waste of ink and the paper it was written on...

It is a feel good law, very hard to enforce, and quite honestly there are more important things for the MP to be spending their limited man power on.

As someone else mentioned, a feel less comfortable on the lake then I did just a few years ago, mainly because of the next generation of boaters, who don't seem to get the basic laws of the water, let alone worrying about their speed.
