If that's your opinion, fine, criticize, complain and vote, but you really don't have to call him names. I did Google him, and did not find anything damning. I don't know what an MTA is.

Yes, it's called "reasonable and prudent". You may have read about it.

You do know that even should the more restrictive HB-162 pass, that boaters will have to use their judgement to determine their maximum safe speeds. Even with a state-wide speed limit of 45 mph, boaters will often not be able to go 45 mph because it will not be reasonable or prudent to do so. They won't have to call the MP to figure it out, they will just use their judgement. And if they're judgement is wrong, they'll will be fined. Do you have a better solution?
