If we can't fix the Capt. is there any way we can make Winnipesaukee less attractive to him? Something that might make him and his kind not come here in the first place? . . . . Let's think.
Ok, let's think,

Capt B ignores the rules,

Noise rules, he ignores those
Right of way rules, ignores those
no wake zones, ignores those
150 ft rule, ignores those
common sense, he doesn't have any

So how do we fix this?

The proposal in front of the senate is a speed limit. A speed limit that as pointed out by several vocal proponents is UNENFORCEABLE.

So, if the SL passes we can add it to the list:

Speed limit, unenforceable, Capt B. will ignore and laugh........
