Yes, the bill discriminates against certain classes of boats. No, it isn't fair. I'm not trying to be a smarta$$ when I say life isn't fair. Someone is going to be negatively affected no matter where the line is drawn concerning length and power of a boat. I'm sure that you would agree that if the law passed to ban boats longer than 39 feet we'd see a post from an owner of a 40 footer complaining about the arbitrary selection of that length.

Mav, I said that I agreed with most of your editorial comments and I do. We can expect the next step to be taken will be to put a speed limit into law. Perhaps that is what they should have done in the first place. The Marine Police will have as much trouble enforcing a speed limit law as they will have in trying to determine if the boat they just saw on the lake is a banned boat. The boat ban bill is now law. We've got what we've got.
