I think boaters should organize to protect their interests but let's be honest here, what you are proposing is a group to protect the interests of GFBL boat owners.

If I was in favor of a speed limit or other restrictions I doubt I would be welcome. Since, as someone pointed out, less than 5% of the boats on the lake are the offshore type would the interests of the other 95% small boat owners be properly represented in your group? I doubt it.

Go ahead and fight for your interests, just be honest about who you are representing.
