Read your own post carefully, and you'll see why boaters are so adamant about resisting any attempt by shorefront owners to restrict where we can anchor. (You're absolutely correct. The pace of construction of new homes is quickly eroding the amount of "wild" shoreline available to us!)
I would never anchor so as to impinge on access to someone's dock or beach; that interferes with their right to access the lake. Having a small cruiser, I bring my own sanitary facilities with me (necessary at my age.)
I would never anchor super close to shore for safety reasons; if the hook came loose there might not be time to run the blowers and get underway before grounding!
I respect the lake, and have never dumped trash or garbage into the water. I never even play my radio while anchored, let alone blast it.
And, unless there was a serious safety issue (like my boat sinking out from under me) that made it imperative to do so, I would never, ever, set foot ashore without being invited to do so. That shoreline belongs to somebody else and it's just plain wrong to trespass!
However, I find your attitude that anchoring even 200 feet or more from your beach is rude and obnoxious behavior on my part
to be rude and obnoxious in and of itself. You own land, I own a boat, and neither of us owns the lake. Why do you feel that your right to enjoy your property supercedes my right to enjoy my property? Relative cost, perhaps? If so, then should I have the right to shoo somebody with a small runabout out of a cove that I want to myself? I don't think so!
You get a life yourself, and stop trying to interfere with boaters enjoying
our property (i.e., our boats) and
public property (i.e., the lake)!
