Speed Limit

[Islander]

This is where these people are coming from! They want to blast by Eagle Island at 200 mph.

Notice that the generic name for these boats is "Offshore". Winni doesn't have anyplace that is offshore.

Do you have any idea about reality at all? There are only 4 boats in the WORLD that can go that fast, and maybe 6 people that I can think of in the WORLD that are capable of driving a boat at that speed. Of those 4 boats only 2 are "offshores" they are Callen Marine and the Bacardi Skater. Not to worry the likelyhood that either of these are going to show up at Lake Whiny is about the same as the planet earth being hit by a huge meteor. To the best of my knowledge the fastest boat that is on Lake Winni is just over 100. Still fast yes but a far cry from 200. Yes "THESE PEOPLE" as you refer to us think a 200mph speed limit would be ok as it would have no effect on us.
As for Offshore boats on the lake, I have been on Lake Winni when it has been MUCH rougher then when out on the ocean. If you boat out there often then you know full well how rough it can be when the wind whips up on the broads. Anything that is not on the dry land is offshore

Isn't every boat that's in the lake "offshore"

Here's a picture of a boat NOT offshore...it's called a "planter"
