Best Deck Gun?
 

You need a permit to shoot PWD'ers, and the season for water skiers is very short.

Do y'all mount those new 25mm rapid fire guns or will a "Ma Duece" or
simply a .30 cal do?

Seriously, what are the legal and technical ramifications of firearms on
yachts?

TIA

Oh No! I meant PWC'ers, not PWD'ers (Portuguese Water Dogs)!

PWCs are like deer here--you can only take one or two each season, depending
upon your license. But there's no bag limit on those taken with your
vehicle, er boat.

Many years ago my brother had a model of an 1812 long gun (perhaps a chaser from the
Constitution?) milled out of carbon steel. IIRC, it had a bore of 3/4 inch which is the
same as the old Brown Bess musket. I assume he got the shot from the black powder folks -
he had a black powder license from the local police. I think the shot was 4 ozs. The
cannon maker claimed that with a full load it could shoot several miles, but the most I
ever saw it go was about 600 yards.

My brother always wanted to mount the cannon on my boat so we could "salute" the
Constitution when she goes out. I always declined, and nowadays it would be a serious
faux pas.

Most women would probably say yes.
