You may regret getting into this Ski Man. The small handful of people who try to steamroll this forum with their unlimited speed agenda always have to have the last word. They'll ridicule, insult and question your intelligence. They'll tell you what your motives are and ignore any sincere and thoughtful statements you make about your actual motives. No matter what you say Woodsy, winnilaker, Cal and Mee-n-Mac will tell you at length why you're wrong (usually within minutes) with the same tired arguments they have made a hundred times before (and no doubt a hundred times more).

They'll "play nice" here because they're forced to by the moderator but you only need to spend a few minutes on OSO and other forums to see their true colors. Note that one of their leaders, who also frequently posts here, has to continuously tell them that insulting and bashing your opponents does not help their cause. He has to do that because insulting and bashing HB162 supporters is SOP for many of them.

They'll never change their tactics and you'll never convince them. They will stop at nothing to protect their ability to drive their boats at unlimited speeds in a self-contained lake filled with mostly small family boats. Your time is much better spent writing to or calling your rep. In my humble opinion of course .
