You have a good point there. The HB162 argument on BOTH sides has mostly ignored the PWCs. Strange considering I own one. Perhaps it's because while many PWCs will go faster than 45 mph, not many can go over 60.

But why do you limit your comments to 3 person PWCs, HB162 will apply to 1 and 2 person PWCs as well, and some of those are high power for their size.

You are wrong about your cleansing theory however. In fact the most ardent supporters, what some might call the "bring back Golden Pond" crowd, hate PWCs a lot more than GFBLs. Owning a PWC on the island is like strike one against you with many neighbors.
