The only problem I see with it is how well can the ID be enforced by
conservation or other water authorities. AND Will it help to curb
accidents?

Beats me.

There is already a lot of enforcement out there, too much in my
opinion. Within 1,000 feet of our house we have 5 different law
enforcement agencies patroling the water, all with expensive high
powered boats.



They're there to keep an eye on you, Wayne! :)
