I'm reading a lot of posts and am hearing a lot of anger from boaters about what is happening on the lakes. Kids are getting killed because someone else is irresponsible or just plain stupid. Boating used to be fun and brought many families and friends together for some great times. Now it seems to be a war on the waterways mainly because of alcohol and egos. You wonder why there are getting to be more and more a--hole boat cops out there? Shouldn't be hard to figure that one. Very soon there will be more restrictions on the waterways as the population continues to grow. It's up to the boating public now to make it a safe and fun sport for current boaters and future generations. Take some time and think about what you are doing in the moment and what might occur due to your actions. Who knows, you may save someones life.
You can take that one to the bank. There's already talk of speed limits and other restrictions because of a few inconsiderate dumbasses.
