Apples to oranges: Your wake will be greater at the relatively slow speed in this photo.

(And a roostertail is not a wake).

Then you missed this post on polling of boater opinions here.

Your user-name is also new here, if I'm left to guess, and missed the same post: (here).

The more concise questionaire should have read:

1) Yes, I do own a GFBL Boat on Lake Winnipesaukee.

2) Yes, I do own a GFBL Boat but on different waters.

3) No, I do Not own a GFBL Boat on Lake Winnipesaukee.

4) No, I do Not own a GFBL Boat but on different waters.

What validity does a poll have when it includes votes of those who boat on distant waters?

Was it a committee that drew up this poll?

Actually, I have ten boats, but these eight are on Winnipesaukee!

1) This poll is in the Speed Limits forum.

2) Dave R is right: this poll should have been limited to SL opponents.

You don't suppose it was Winnipesaukee Cowboys who, after Midnight, "used their switchable exhaust at night"—to abuse such rights—that brought about today's restriction on what is a totally residential neighborhood?

Nobody's asking for perfection.

While an Internet poll can be defeated by a determined group, a poll does has to be reasonably concise.

IMHO
