Doug,
Good idea, that would also help them out with possible shark attacks.
:-) How it may not be politically correct, but have you given any thought to
mines! Now I realize that a few manatees would have to make the ultimate
sacrifice, but the rest of the herd would be better off for it. I mean after
a few boats blew up, EVERYBODY would slow down. Hey, you know, if this idea
takes off I'm going to invest in companies that make sonar gear. :-)

They would have been better off spending the money to buy Kevlar jackets
for the
manatees. If everyone who hit a manatee broke their prop and/or destroyed
their
lower unit, instead of merely injuring the animal, then the need for
slowing
down (or not) would be obvious... and wouldn't need law enforcement.

Fair Skies-
