I never said boating at night was not allowed...Where did you get that?

My point is that all it takes is one moron to anchor overnight with no lights on to get hit to prove my point. If an unlit island can get hit so can a boat sitting somewhere in the dark, especially if parked in an open area. If you think nothing will come of it you must be assuming that everyone on the lake uses common sense and there are many threads here that prove otherwise.

Every year we had multiple occurrences of boats either coming inside our moorings (between shore and the moorings which were 90 feet out) on the island at night, and many close calls of our moored boats getting hit.
