I'm mystified. I can find NO records of any speed-related incidents, NOR can I find any record of public notice of impending regulations. OK, so it will only take me another minute and a tiny bit more fuel to get to the Inn. I can live with that. It's the apparent lack of due process that has me up in arms. Smarty - Let's get after this one.
Who will enforce it? The Maryland DNR or the Army Corp of Engineers? In a way, it doesn't matter. I don't think that I have ever seen an LEO on the Canal in 12 years, other than after a sinking. Besides, there are already rumors of the marker bouys going missing... |

Sorry to hear about this bs fellas, but this is exactly how all the Save the manatee BS started here if FL years ago. 1st, they just want to slow you down, (25 MPH Zones) then the next thing you know, they pass some "Update" to the reg., and now it's a "NO WAKE MANATEE ZONE"!:angry-smiley-038:

For some reason the locals didn't like that and there were no-wake bouy's installed outside the channel all the way to the bay. The state police handed out tickets regularly and the ticket required a mandantory court appearance. I think the fine was $300. :poopoo: All of us boaters, even the non-performance boaters were pissed but the no-wake zone was arbitrarilly implemented. I think state politics won out over due process. I'm kinda glad I moved but it seems to be following me. :( |
Pontoon boat here I come!

By the way, the 88db noise level legislation that we all opposed was enacted:
Maryland Noise level limits It's still 90db in the rest of the Bay. |
John,
It wont affect you as you only go from Susquehanna to Lloyd and back |
