I think we all should start writing down bow numbers and take action against these reckless offenders.

I agree wholeheartedly. Several weeks ago i witnessed two children (under age 12 in my estimation) coming out their cove a few coves over from us on a jet ski. Well, I thought no problem..they will eventually get caught and hopefully that will solve that problem. They did this on an off for several hours. MP even cruised by twice but did not see them. I kept thinking to myself...get caught get caught!! Well..the last trip out the two girls were arguing with one another loud enough for me to hear and the girl in the back grabbed the throttle and pushed down and the both of them almost went a$$ over tea kettle as the jet ski lurched forward out of control. They both screamed and started hitting each other. That was the last straw and I called MP. Of course a few minutes later they were back in hiding in their cove. I was smart enough however to get the bow #'s off the jet ski. MP did their job and 20 minutes later i saw them going into their cove. Good job MP. The sad part of the story is two days late i see 3 young girls coming out of the same cove again on that jet ski. All they probably got was a warning because MP didn't witness the incident. I guess we shouldn't be calling MP for every little infraction but for the really big ones...it's all of our responsibility!!
