Rusty, If you are on a PUBLIC body of water you have NO EXPECTATION of privacy... I am not sure why you are adamant and think this it is an invasion of their privacy... It's the same as if you are on a public street in your car and a traffic camera takes a picture of you/your car going through an intersection... In addition, there is no revealing information by this picture as to the bow number of the boat or the identity of the people... How can yo invade their privacy if you don't know who they are??? IMO, there is nothing wrong with the photo other than allowing others to see what dangerous situations exist and thus maybe preventing someone else from doing the same thing... If that kids falls off the front of the boat (i.e. losing his balance, not because the boat was going 2mph) and the driver immediately either puts the boat in neutral or kills the engine, let me tell you that the prop will still be spinning until the boat stops... Anyway you slice it, it is wrong and dangerous... That's the bottom line...
