I don't think enforcement will be much of a problem. Obviously some boats will go a little over the limit and get away with it.

Some boaters will go way over the limit, here and there, and get away with it. But do that to often and you will see a flashing blue light astern.

I doubt boaters will speed or not speed based on how well a ticket will hold up in court.

I imagine the MP might employ a speed trap here or there if they see a problem. One or two radar guns used, on occasion, by a couple of trained officers is not going to effect the budget.

Over time boaters that really want to go fast will not come to Winni.
