    Capt Brooks,

       Thank you for taking time to respond to these imprtant questions.  Too bad you can't regulate common sense, poor judgement &  lack of respect.  Rest assured that there many good, safe and caring people that operate on the waters of the lake.  Some will even try to gently educate & encourage others to reamain safe.  But, most of the time we get the same negative response that you get and worse because we aren't wearing a badge.  Sad part is that in most cases we are just trying to keep them safe.

  Happy & Safe boating too all
