Question. There are a number of proposals to create LNG terminals in
various areas of the country, which will/may impact the boating
public..... any thoughts?
====================

Yes. My thinking is that they should be kept away from metro areas
and away from major boating centers. They are too dangerous for a
populated region, and the required security zones and procedures would
make them a major pain to pleasure boaters. Perhaps off shore
unloading platforms with underwater pipes going inland?

The technology to do that surely exists and it solves some of the
issues.
