I have heard that refrain about lake ownership also and am amazed people can use it to justify their inconsiderate actions. What a thought process--or lack thereof.
My bad on the 150' rule. There ought to be such a rule for wakeless speed also unless you ask another boat to come closer or if it is in the proximity of a boat launch area. I guess it probably won't happen though until somebody gets shot--
indeed. Are we headed for a required ethics course for boating just like the extended archery season?
People never cease to amaze! Maybe you should strap one on the side of your tube to deter the bumping and close calls---deterrence not aggression. Someone coming close enough to touch your tube with a boat may possibly be legal grounds to shoot. Were you afraid for your life? A boat can be--as was show by those idiots on Pineview a couple of years ago--a deadly weapon.
