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.

What say ye, Greg and Wayne...

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. About the only good thing to come of all that is the
noisy go fast boats are no longer treating the river like their own
private speedway.


Hummm, somehow I remember someone complaining about that particular type
of enforcement in the CT River a few years back ???
