Looks like Ike is toast

Jocko- Yes You are Correct in that Maritime law does State that the Captian is responsible...............  And I beleive if you are Blatantly Reckless you should be held Responsible....... However, My statement still Stands........  These Guys are Fishing for their livelyhood and will not Change their gameplan and leave what they think is a winning area because a Marshall is in the boat............ The Marshalls sign a binding release that says the understand that it is inherently dangerousand they are given the opertunity to back out......

As far as speed limiters............. OMG!!  This is turning into the Gun Debates..........  There was an ACCIDENT lets ban all boats that go over idle speed........  Better yet lets put theses guys in Rowboats and pad the gunnels.........  That way nobody gets hurt........... 

You know this is just REDICULOUS that we are even having this discussion...........   Boats have been going fast enough to bowhook since the early 80's  Why are we now running around like Chicken little  now?   

It is Just like this..............  if you are scared of Fast Boats........  there are Electric only and Horsepower restricted lakes all over the Country......  GO there.    DON"T try to legislate to me that I have to spend an extra HOUR driving down the lake because you are scared....

Falcon is 80,000 acres with 2 ramps one in the middle and one at the dam...........  Speed is necessary to travel the lake........  The lake is full of 75mph boats 24/7/365 and there are zero incidents............  Do you Know why?  Because the Slower Boats on that lake, which are usually the mexican fisherman, understand they don't pull out in front of faster traffic,  When they do have a faster boat coming behind them they move to the right and they wave you by.......  All while Smiling and enjoying thier day.  Not Crying and complaining because a boat is passing them.

I am glad I live in a State that doesn't have a problem telling people if the want more regulations they should move somewhere else.
