Ok, think of it like this. Idle speed from shore or piers, and only in the area of 100 miles north of the Gulf coast. Most rivers are not 600 feet wide, unless my distance perception is completely off. So you will have to idle a minimum of 5 miles either direction to get to Lulu's. How about other marinas that are a little inland? My issue is once the law is one the books it is EASY for them to "extend" or "modify" to include other areas.

Instead of saying "It's not too bad" how about asking "What will it fix"???? It will not stop any property damage allegedly caused by wake board boats throwing wakes in close quarters. It will not stop deaths like the one where the lady struck the pier at high rate of speed on the PWC. If there is some merrit to it, why is it limited to certain geographical area? Purely political. Who benefits from it? Why? Where are the studies?
