No offense, but the tone of your posts in this thread kinda sound like premature complaining before you've even had the chance to measure the effects of something.

Poker run attendance could be down this year because of people put off by the speed limit laws, put off by the economy, put off by just wanting to do something different, or any number of things. Just as likely, attendance could be UP by people in pontoon boats and little runabouts (which outnumber the fast boats on the lake) because they feel they might actually have a better chance at winning with less competition.

Who knows... But complaining about theoretical possibilities on this topic has a bit of a sore-loser feel to it.

Why should the owners of "fast boats" not go? What are they risking? Are you trying to imply the throttles have only two positions, off and full?
