I hear ya PMarr ! The thing is If I'm driving (sober ) and have some passengers drinking on board I refuse to drive. I know this sounds stupid as heck, but as I understand the laws, the driver can be charged with open container, because after all they are in charge or the vessel. But dang, you see where I'm going. I want to ask one of the M P's but how can they say it's ok when it legally aint ? Aight having said that I wish there was a way to know how they are enforcing the law. I'm on a slow moving pontoon boat, so I'm not nearly the threat as something moving at a high rate of speeed. The other weekend I saw a huge boat with one of those little walkways straight off the front, some 8 - 14 year old kid sitting on it, sraddling it, the boat travleing about 40 m.p.h. after dark without nav lights. The Police were there to make em aware of the danger, and did. heck i'm rambling now.

Good to see everyine on the lake.......
