So, what will happen with the new federal safety lanyard law? I don't think Gov Sununu will see a need for it and will ignore it similar to how NH treats the federal seat belt law for cars. New Hampshire loses out on maybe 5-million dollars in federal highway funds every year by not having a seat belt law, and could also lose out on federal funding for boating and water safety by ignoring this new safety lanyard law.

We don't need the feds telling us to go wear a seat belt or go wear a motor boat lanyard ...... live free or die! .... bah humbug! ....

After all, it is the principal and not the money that really and truly matters! ..... live free or die! ... bah humbug! .... ... blah-blah-blah!
I've been wearing a seat belt since the 80's... do you?
