You do realize that the boat that was in the accident is not a GFBL, right? It's just a big, quiet, family, day-boat with limited overnight accomodations, a head, and a galley, that barely exceeds...

This topic has been debated for years on this forum. Read some of the older threads and you will have a better understanding of why some people want a limit and some people don't.

If you are going 5 MPH and the motor boat is going 50 MPH, it's only going to pass you once as you both go from one end of the lake to the other. If the motor boat is going 30MPH, or 130 MPH, it...

I have used power, sail and human powered boats on Winnipesaukee often for 30+ years. I have boated on the lake in ALL kinds of conditions. I have no stake in this game since my boat will barely...

Wouldn't it be every item you excluded? I'll take a stab or two though, King Tut? A baby's arm holding an apple?

I'm scared of sunlight. I wear sunblock. People who tan nicely make me look more pasty than I am. There obviously needs to be a law against tanning so that my feelings are not hurt. :D

I am still trying to figure out why people think kayaks are difficult to see in daylight. I think they are incredibly easy to spot. If one can spot spars (a necessary skill on this lake), a kayak is...

70 MPH was obviously too fast for the conditions. Those conditions would probably be unsafe for my boat at 40 MPH. Not sure what a speed limit has to do with that video though, that was just someone...
