How about the Skier Down Flag required in several states (NJ has their own standard Skier Down flag). I thought that Orange was a standard ski flag color.


You can read about the first pictured flag here: West Marine Skier Down Flag page
The second, handheld flag is here: West Marine Hand Held skier down flag

I'll reserve my comments on the other items for the moment. Suffice it to say, safety on the lake may now be an even more important public issue than it was before HB 162. Interesting...
