I for one will not allow the speed limit effect any boat purchase I make, if I like (and I do) the GFBL type boats I will still by one. I will just have to make sure I obey any speed law that my come about. And for all that matters my current boat which isn't even a GFBL, will still break the speed limits they are suggesting.

I was talking with one of the marinas this past month, this issue is killing their boat business for all boats, not just the GFBLs. This bill is putting an economic hold on the top marinas on this lake. They are the ones that are suffering because they don't have a choice, they sell what they sell. This whole issue is not fair to them, they have families to feed and bills to pay, this bill is going to put a lot of them out of work. The state will then have to pay to re-train them, and pay their un-employment. Another economic problem to deal with. A lot of the people supporting this bill are business owners, how would they feel if a bill was passed that effected their business.
Not a like thing to do to their neighbors.
