If it doesn't work I will be in favor of a repeal.
Speed limits failed in the Senate by two votes. Those Senators have been replaced.
The petition was for a lake wide speed limit. Barrett decided that meant an 8 year test study in two small areas. Just a delay tactic.

The only thing it will change is limiting the rights of a specific type of boat that is capable of exceeding an arbitrary line in the sand.
If we want the lake to be a safer place, then we all should join together and ask the MP to step up enforcement of the 150' rule.
I also would like to ask: If a boat is going in excess of 45 mph and is no where near another boat, why is that unsafe?
Islander obviously feels that 60+ mph is safe, or they likely wouldn't be traveling on the lake at those speeds endangering us all, so to speak.
