We need to have MORE Marine Patrol to enforce what we have in place NOW. Not give them another law to TRY to enforce with MINIMAL resources.

This is a point that many on the lake have been trying to get through to others for quite some time now. Most of us don't really care to go over 45 mph..... however, we are for safety.

Safety, however, will not be gotten by simply instituing ANY new laws. It is in enforcing and educating the pulic on the current laws. If THAT doesn't work then re-visit what can be done after that.

Back to sound..... it is discourtious....however, a simply meeting in the middle would be the switch that was discussed.

All of these discussions I believe, could be fixed by a meeting in the MIDDLE. Why get so angry. Why spend so much money on being the group that is RIGHT..... no one is RIGHT.... it is all opinions.

Pool the money and do research ON FACTS and DATA. Then come to a reasonable solution.
