Excellent posts by Silver Duck & Upthesaukee. However, as I mentioned before, the problem is that in theory the entire lake could become no rafting (except big open bays & the broads) under current law.

Maybe boaters that believe this is wrong should try to get together & find our own sponsors to write a bill that will repeal the current law that allows someone to petition for a NRZ & even take back current NRZ'S. Personally, I would even be willing to support a limit on how many boats can raft (say 5 or 6) if the current NRZ'S are repealed & the power of the safety commissioner to designate new NRZ'S by petition is eliminated. Something is better than nothing & it spreads the rafting around more evenly. As they say, a good compromise is when no one is entirely happy.
