If the law is the same as on the coast, the overboard pump and thru-hull have to be secured by a lock---and the owner has the key. Maybe new boats purchased locally have no thru-hull, but I will bet the used boats brought to the lake are capable of pumping overboard. That's not my hangup.

If someone could teach big boaters up here that running just under plane is the worst for wake. Most drivers of big boats on Lake Martin probably think they are doing us all a favor by cruising off plane, but they are killing us. These boats should move at less than 1000 rpm or go ahead and get on plane--much less wake.

Loud/fast boaters have yourselves an uphill battle. Until you learn that most people really see your activity as showing your a_ _, you will have problems and ultimately you will be regulated.
