"If I take all the above stuff with me, it ends up at the bottom of the lake. Maybe I am missing something." If you can't manage to keep yourself from constantly dropping stuff overboard, then what you are "missing" isn't a simple answer, and is definitely one you don't want to hear. (But to be nice, maybe what you're missing is a float that you can tie to that bag of stuff you keep dropping overboard.)
"If I must carry my vessel license, why can't I just get cheap driver's license copies clearly designated as vessel only?" I am pretty sure that this isn't something decided by the Marine Police; the DMV must not want multiple licenses out there. Why? I don't know, but if you're complainng to Capt. Brooks about it, my guess is that you're complaining to the wrong person.
"I'd just drop a license into the sailboat, boat and jetscooter and worry about it in 5 years." Again, if you can't manage to spend a day on the lake without losing all of your valuable personal possessions, you need to be worrying about other things.
"If vessel only license copies are a bad idea, please tell me why." And again, you're likely complaining to the wrong person.
I have a feeling you're the guy who tries to make the "So what if I was pulling six kids on a tube at high speeds through a crowded area, with no observer in the boat, and with a beer in one hand and a cocktail in the other? WHY is that so bad?" argument. Because it seems that the laws that the rest of us must comply with were not written with your convenience in mind, so therefore they must not apply to you.
