I only make this point because you are clearly singling out one type of boat (7 times) in your post above.
Someone mention in another post about a pontoon boat that can exceed 50 mph! WOW! Aren't pontoon boats 'the darling of the SL supporters'? IMHO, the pontoon boats that are rented out are the biggest boneheads.

I remember a Hobie Cat that exceeded 50 mph a while ago. I guess we need to outlaw any vessel that exceed 45 mph. Not just GFB boats.
