Speed limits are here to stay. The next change will be to make them State-wide.
After being defeated three times in a row, you will have a hard time getting any politicians to put their name on another anti-speed limit bill.
I'm sorry if this sounds smug. But the anti-SL movement is dead, dead, dead.

OK, so if you believe the SL is here to stay then my next question is:
Which is easier to enforce, the 150 ft rule or the speed limit?
I don't think the lake will change one bit. The far, far majority of boats are basic bowriders. My guess is the 90% percentile of boats are in the 20-26 ft range and can't do the wild speeds that some of the pro-SL crowd has railed against and pretended as "the norm".
I still say the lake doesn't change one iota with or without a SL.
The helves, ELs, APS's of the world are still going to have high cortisol levels. LOL
