Look, you're posting this to a cruising n/g. Jet skis are noisy and
offensive buzzing insects and the people who drive around on them are
the seaborne equivalent of morons who ride trail bikes on public
reserves. Go away and play with your toy and don't expect any sympathy
from sailors.

We rode our our jetskis away from marked channels in shallow water to
avoid the boat traffic.

If you're going to quote, please quote something in the same context.
That web page you quoted includes the following line regarding noise:

"implied covenant of quiet enjoyment in leases is imposed by statute"

A lake, bay, river, etc is a public place without leases. I'll rephrase
what I said before. "If you want a lake that you can dictate who boats
and who doesn't, buy" OR LEASE "the lake."

I'm curious how you found a way to turn a wake jumping issue into a
Yacht almost being t-boned. How could a jetski behind a yacht,
travelling perpendicular to it, almost T-bone the yacht?

Just like there is a selct bunch of morons on jetskis, the same can be
said of boats, as well as every other recreational activity on the
planet. In all cases, the ones who makes themselves a nuisance are the
ones that get noticed. The ones that behave go un-noticed. Therefore
all that gets noticed is the assholes. If I'm out onthe water all
weekend, I might see hundreds of jetskis, but it's always the same
dozen or so assholes giving the entire sport a bad name.

How many senior citiziens from Michigan drowned when their boat
capsized? I wonder if they think kidding about boating accidents is a
joke. By the way, "joke" is your description of what you previously
said, not mine. If they complained about someone joking about a boating
accident, I wonder if they "have no business on usenet." Again, your
words, not mine.
