The "new and improved" Akwa Marina (translation - huge, gawdy and more expensive) has produced a whole new string of boaters who know little or nothing about boating safety. They leave and come into shore WAY too fast, way too close to each other and dangerously close to other docks AND swimmers. The wakes damaged a loons nest and I can't tell where they've relocated to or if they lost their chick.

I've called Marine Patrol several times. I've even offered bow numbers of the offenders. They fail to even drive by the area.

Does Akwa Marina carry any responsibility for the conduct of it's members?

How can I get Marine Patrol to pay attention to this serious safety issue?
