The threads below about the money behind the big boat proposal raises an interesting question. Put aside for the moment that everybody interested in this issue is coming from a selfish perspective - you want to drive your boat whereever you want, the supporters of the bill want to increase the value of the real estate investment, don't like big boats for safety, noise or congestion reasons, etc. The question I think is interesting is why you think the sponsors of the legislation are so financially interested? Why do they think they will profit from the legislation? As someone down the board points out, Russell would lose marina income, but he thinks Russell would be in favor because of the real estate development $$$. Why is that? Why would any of these supporters, who everyone would have to agree are pretty sophisiticated, bottom line business people, care about the size or speed of boats on the lake?
