That's not true, I host an event in New York and the quickest way to raise the ire of the locals is to violate their no wake zones. You can bend the rules in many areas but NWZ seem to be sacred.

It needs to be kept in mind that most marine enforcement agencies now fall under the umbrella of Homeland Security, and have frightening authority including the power to seize someone's boat on a whim. This was part of the discussion with the officers on the beach. If we antagonize the locals and the authorities too much, they will go out of their way to put an end to this event, which is literally one phone call away from being finished after 15 years.

Not as described in the report we received and it should be left at that. Cops have internet and know how to read.

They can not seize your boat due to a NWZ infraction I don't care if it's the president. Unless the boat is unsafe to operate or not legal to be on the public waterways there is only citations that can be issute. If those cum guzzlers want to call the water patrol flamers so be it. Come up her non of that no wake bull, run them hard as you want. And there are plenty of spots to raft and offer the pizza HQ from.

Good luck with that.

Good luck with what? That made no sence

Oh no, you're obviously confused, there are a total of THREE boats with an american flag down the side, haha!

Hunter did the Cig right after 9/11 as a tribute. I saw yours a while ago and couldn't help but notice how heavily influenced the painter (EG) must have been from Hunter's work. You know what they say... Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery! In all sincerity, I really like the paint work on both boats... I've seen your boat over on LI, it's a beautiful rig! We'll have to tie all three of the flag boats together at Claudio's one of these days.

Some people just don't know when to keep their mouth shut.

Post the report I'm curious

This was posted on S&F

"""" So i just got a call from a cop buddy of mine that was sitting in Harbor Park parking lot bull****ting with a Conversation Officer. He said they both watched two boats racing through the bridges right past Harbor Park. One boats name was "Not Satisified" and the other was a boat with a red white and blue flag on it.

Another boat they say was some orange boat with a number 39 on it blasting through the nwz in front of all the portland marinas.

The comment from the Conservation officer to my cop buddy was "that wont happen again next year".

Take it for what its worth guys... but its your day to lose. """"

Doesn't sound credible to us .

It seems that this is going to turn into a " he said she said" issue. At this point there is a lot of boat colors ,numbers ,brand names ,ect , being thrown out as the bad guys... and without video, its next to impossible to pinpoint the culprit. I would say theres no doubt that a few boats ran through the NWZ somewhere along the way and that is bad. But before this turns into a huge problem with verbal assults,and accusations, we should just bring this problem to light and focus on correcting it for the future boat fun runs. I know there was some question as to whether or not the "normal rules and regulations" were in effect this late in the season and I thought the questions were clearly answered, but a lot of out of state boaters aren't familiar with the CT. rules and regulations. So, IMO, from this point on, we should look forward to next years event and making sure this doesn't happen again by reminding EVERYONE involved how important the no wake zone rules really are.. This boat run is way too fun an event to start any negative overtones around the two biggest boating sites (OSO and S+F) on the east coast. This run seems to be growing rapidly, and Id like to keep it that way! Thats my worthless .02
