I've heard this argument before and I didn't say anything, but now that you've brought it up again, I think I'll jump in ...

You say ..."most of the folks that complain about these type vessels are mad because they can not afford one, but would love to own one." What are you basing this statement on? Where is your data? I know lots of people who can afford Fountain's etc. who don't want them. Some people like loud and fast ... some people like slow and quiet ... REGARDLESS of their economic status.

You state further ... "people come to the lake to have fun". Again, says who? Some people come to the lake to have fun, and some people come to the lake to get away from the noise and confusion of city living. Neither group has more of a right than the other.

Next you say ... "my problem was the jet skies wanting to race and over powered fishing boats trying to keep up with me in rough water" ... Why do you get to decide what is "fun" and what is a "problem" .. the PWC riders and powered fishing boats probably think it's "fun" to try and keep up with you in rough water.

And then at the very end, you say ..."As far as noise ,most have a choice of loud or quite , just flip a switch " - I think that was what the original poster was saying. When the loud boaters are in residential areas, flip the switch so that you don't bother other people.

I am a pretty much a "live and let live" kind of person ... I think there is plenty of open-water, undeveloped areas around the lake for all of the skiers, PWCers, Powerboaters, etc. .... I don't think anyone has to be as quiet as a mouse, but I do think that trying to be quiet in residential areas (and in the evenings) is just the polite thing to do.

I'll get off my soapbox now ... and please remember, it's just my little old opinion ....
