No, partially true. We do live in a nation of restrictions, but for the most part I follow the Libertarian view – if you do not infringe on someone else’s rights or safety then why create laws to ban behavior? The second amendment addresses the right to keep and bear arms – that is an individual right – it says nothing about the use of the firearms; it states that we may have them. There are restrictions in place that deal with the improper USE of firearms, cars, boats, alcohol already.

How much time have you spent on the water observing what causes wake? From my observations there is more wake damage from the OPERATOR who is either inconsiderate or oblivious to what he is doing. If you operate even a small boat with a planing hull at just below planing speed, you will create a tremendous amount of wake, if you operate a wakeboard boat with 1,000 lbs of ballast; your goal is to …. everyone … CREATE BIG WAKE. Please explain why this law was put in place to minimize shore damage, and how it will accomplish that goal. These banned “assault boats” spend very little time in transit, and that is the only time they can create wake. You can consider it a condo on the water; enjoyed for long periods, but underway very little. To enjoy a wakeboard boat in the intended way, you have to keep moving, and generating more wake.
