Skip,

I'm guessing that the civility has to do with there being less at stake. Last year people were amped up with the impending legislation. This year it is mostly speculation and discussion.

I also think there aren't many people who would begrudge a Speed Limit in those highly congested areas. My boat only goes 50 but I don't think I've ever gone more than 25mph in the two areas in question.

My only thought is do we really need a law to spell this one out? Common sense would dictate this one here wouldn't it. Lets see what affect the law regarding Boating License Possession has on these things. We still haven't seen the full affect of that law yet have we. When does it catch up to all boaters that they must possess one?
