The speed limit, enforced or not, sets a standard of behavior. It points the lake in a different direction. It sends a message to the cowboys. And that message is "go elsewhere".

Two very conflicting statements. Congress acts like the first, flinging any terrible law at whatever the problem of the day is.
The message to the cowboys used to be Wyatt Earp. Now it's sending "messages". So there are still idiots on the lake, going well under the speed limit, most of whom do not drive high HP boats.
I gave you too much credit BI.
