Skip, can you tell us what the laws are that pertain to the use of PWC's in coves? I know that they must always operate ate headway speed within so many feet of shore, but I had also understood that they were not allowed to enter coves (even at headway speed) unless they had a residence or were visiting a residence in the cove. As other spots are gianing no-rafting status, we are having an influx of rafters into our small cove. they tow PWC's in with them, then use the PWC's to and from their boats, at high speed. the MP's will only come in and tell them to behave, but do not make them take the PWC's out of the cove, and will never write them a ticket.
