The Marine Patrol Is Ruining Boating

Look at it as a great life lesson for your son to learn. He's not going to encounter friendly people in his life all the time and will at some point have to learn how to deal with the grumps! From what you post it appears as if your son handled himself professionally and in a courteous manner. That's the lesson he should take away from this experience. You can't control how other's act but you can ALWAYS control how you act. Kudos to you for raising such a responsible young man!!

Ditto...and Merrymeeting...please please please report this to the MP headquarters. That type of attitude is very unprofessional and completely unnecessary.

We can play cat and mouse with the MP and their "speed traps".

That's an awesome application. I think it's a great way to get around the problem that radar detectors are illegal in that area. The fact that the police are upset that they are going to lose revenue because people will be stopping for red lights and slowing down is amusing.
