Whoa, that's a big leap there! I'm not aware of any signs that the local economy is suffering (e.g. MC weekend was declared another success) because of a multi-year phase in of the boating safety certificate requirement. But, if a once-in-a-lifetime need to sit in class for 8 hours for a tune up on safe boating practice is too much to ask, then I'm happy to not have those folks on the water. But that does raise a good point -- are gas prices keeping traffic down or is the lack of certified operators and renters playing into the mix?
