65 mph on the Broads only

[Dick52]

My assumption is that 99% of us do not have a boat that will travel at 65 MPH.
Today ever other boat is a pontoon boat. The question is why create a law or repeal a current law that only a slim minority want. I live on the broads and prefer not to have the additional noise but there is also a safety issue. The broads on a sunny weekend day looks more like route 93. Why make it worse?

The speed limit works just fine. There is no strict enforcement so just leave it be as it is.

Not many boats go that fast but there are many jet skis that will. I had one that hit 72 mph and it was 10 years old. They are even faster now!
