Based on the conversations I have had, not much is changing. However adhering to existing rules (not passing pace boat until released and the speed limit on the one section of lake) will be required and monitored and if in violation driver and boat owner will be disqualified and not allowed to participant in DS in the future. I think they are going to enforce those rules more this year then in past years.
:There is no pace boats.

That was the first thing that came to my mind from a few years back. IIRC was treating a PR like a sanctioned race on a closed course

I believe Skater40 (Gary) is right. Spoke to him on the phone this morning and said no groups.

I was there last year right in front of the accident last year. There were multiple crowd control boats working hard. Most people were listening to them, however there were multiple people not abiding. It was crazy. The boats were civilian boats with some kind of flag. Herding cats would have been easier. There are just a lot of people who are there for the party and don't respect what they are asking the crowd to do. In my opinion,a driver better not count on an open course.
