The other option is to go hard against the shore line owners... something that doesn't seem quite fair. They obviously want to lower the incidence of blooms, more importantly keep them from expanding. Since the quality of the lakes effects all owners (residents), the means to achieve that in a balanced manner is what they are seeking. I just don't think the precedent they set with defining a specific vessel (ski craft) and placing special restrictions on them is something they should keep doing. Set one standard for everyone.

The shoreline suffers most in Spring.
The dam operators have the lake overfull for today's over-sized boats.
Against these wakes' erosion, I need a tight row of bollards; then maybe, a thick wall of large boulders to break up their wakes' powerful thrusting.
Is this allowed?
No...
