LIfeforrelaxin followed up with an explanation and a new term: "Privileged".

These are the people who ask,
"Don't you know who I am?"

("Beautiful People").

It's not just rafting issues: If there are new requirements for a mandatory 60-foot towrope, or a crackdown on horsepower-to-weight on boats, the reason can be laid at the feet of those who consider themselves "Privileged". For example:

A white Donzi who screams into Winter Harbor—uses tubers and skiers as his personal slalom course—while racing at 75-MPH comes to mind.

Wakesetters who can't keep to the center of bays, coves, and harbors can join the ranks of Beautiful People as well.

A rare NHMP stationary checkpoint this past weekend followed this latest SL scofflaw abomination.

24-hours late!
