Who wants to hear a loon when you can hear a GFBL and catch a fleeting glimpse of it as screams across the lake? I do not think anyone that is pro HB 162 could have articulated the issue as clearly as WL has done. Good job!!!!!!!!

Speed limit or no speed limit, even if all the GFBL's left the lake there is still MANY more boats creating enough wake even at speeds under 45mph that would make canoeing or kayaking on the lake difficult, and this doesn't even take into effect weather patterns. IMHO if you want to enjoy a canoe or kayak then a more peaceful place (similar to the analogy used by Winnilaker about riding motorcycles in Boston) would make more sense to me. Nobody against the speed limit is discriminating against canoes or kayaks, unlike the HB162 supporters who certainly are discriminating against GFBL's. Who's the bigot here?
