Having people pass within a 75 foot distance is getting to be so common to us that we are thinking of getting an inexpensive camera to keep on the boat at the ready to capture these fools in action. I have to believe these folks are repeat offenders and could be easily found to have dozens of violations in a single trip out on the water.

I wonder if their is a simple technique to give the snap shot some credibility for a judgment of distance. (For example, no zoom) Picture of a 20 and 30 foot boat at a measured 150 foot distance for reference. Perhaps if the MPs had a bunch of pics to show the repeat offenders, they could pay them an interesting visit. Or give more than a warning when they do get stopped.

Just getting tired of having to kill the engines every time one of these geniuses come buy.
