And the prohibitions could be by state, local or lake by lake. And obviously there could be factors that have nothing to do with speed.

There are talks among the speed limit proponents of introducing another bill to declare Lake Winnipesaukee a public water supply. This will ban motorboats including the MS Mt Washington. Can you imagine what this will do to the economy? Give them an inch and they will go the mile.
