Laws don't stop people from doing illegal things. If someone wants to go to a lake where PWCs are banned, they'll just take a boat, and if they did something illegal on a PWC, they'll likely do the same illegal activity on a boat.
Boaters frequently speed in the no-wake zone of Meredith Bay. Should we ban boats in the bay because of it, or better yet, should we ban boats from the entire lake so there's no chance anyone can go fast there?

The bills are sort of hodge-podge. Maybe make a suggestion that all motorized vessels have the same shoreland/object setbacks and restrictions on headway speed?
The bills can be amended to such.
That way no group feels like they are being singled out.
