Sounds like good news for fishermen. Must be hard to enjoy a PWC if you can't pass! Tom Lifer in NE Illinois |

I don't think it will do much good. There aren't enough police to go around . Good to have it on the books, hopefully some of the offenders will get stung, but you'll still see it happening alot. Angry Bob NAFC Life Member Registered Smallie Fanatic SE WI |

Boy, this would be a good law for Pa...But like you say Bob, there aren't enough officers to enforce it. But it's a start!  LM since 2005 Bushwacker Deputy Sherif

Since this boating law has been in force. Has anyone heard of any which recieved a citation. I believe its a complete joke. Until the DNR force's some type of on-line boating course. This law was just a waste. This last weekend we had a pwc pass full throttle with 3 on board just 50ft away. I wish I had AB in the boat LOL |

You don't need the baitcaster. Just pick out a medium action spinning reel, and we'll go wacky wormin. I've been spending my time on Rock doing that.

Isn't there a mandadory training class for PWC's in Wisc? There was a Los Angeles cop on a Jetski out in Calif. a few years ago that was on a reservoir in central Cali that hit and killed a swimmer near the shore. He had been drinkiing....but they eventually caught up with him...and needless to say...is now in prison. |

"If you were born after 1988, you're required to complete a boating safety course to legally operate a motorized boat or personal watercraft (PWC)."
Taking a class doesn't make you less of a idiot though. It only TEACHES you HOW to behave, it doesn't MAKE you behave. |
