New class of vessels for the Coast Guard to include in COLREGS
 
I wonder what group of vessels the Coast Guard can put snowmobiles?

Perhaps a new group called TIW for "Track In Water?" Similar to WIG which
is Wing In Ground.

This isn't new. Snowmobilers are where jetskis idea came from.

Or HUR for "Head Up Rectum" which is Wilbur's speciality.

A fool who knows his foolishness is wise
at least to that extent, but a fool who
thinks himself wise is a fool indeed.

There is a group of snowmobile owners who like to race on water.
Dunkings are frequent and quickly dealt with. The lake is shallow, and
a bouyant cushion and a length of line make finding it easy. As long
as they weren't running when immersed, they start right up.

Boating magazine reported all this, several years ago. They did a
comparison with a PWC with the identical engine, and the snow machine
was faster.
