I can see no reason for a boat on lake Martin to have two motors. I do not have a problem if the boat is trailerable and is taken to the ocean but Russell sure has a lot of big Searay's with twin IO's that are not trailerable. Still, i like freedom and I am not in favor of the ban. We need rules of the road and speed limits and enforcement. With some enforcement most law-abiding folks would follow the law. In any event, if the limit is set at 65-70, very few boats on the lake can attain that speed.

The worst wakes are created by wake boats and boats off plane. The so-called 100' rule will do very little good. Most of the wakes we get at our house are from boats in the middle of the slough which is about 250 yards away. Maybe it will stop the pwc's from doing donuts in front of your pier.
