I've read the same editorial every fall for years - just substitute
snowmobile(ing) for boat(ing) - except you left out the bit about our
contribution to the local economy.

The greenies do their best to tar all motorised recreational activities
with the same brush.


-------------------------------

And they are getting good at it. The rest of us will be made to
suffer because of the noisy and obnoxious snowmobile/jetski crowd.


I'm a boater and a snowmobiler, but I don't happen to do jetskis or
bikes. None of the above have a monopoly on noisy and obnoxious, but all
do themselves a disservice when they point fingers at each other -
thereby advancing the greenie cause.

I have been the volunteer Lake Steward for my chosen corner of paradise
going on 15 years, because I care enough to monitor and manage the
impact of recreational activities on the local environment. I've learned
that stewardship is largely about educating all users on how to minimise
their environmental footprint, and most certainly not about pitting user
groups against each other.

======================================

That's commendable Sunny but I am anti noise where ever I find it.
Unfortunately I find it in the great outdoors a lot more often than
I'd like. Unless you have the most quiet snow mobile ever built, I'm
probably anti it also. That's just the way I am. To me snowmobiles
and PWCs both sound like runaway chainsaws and have no place anywhere.

Runaway chainsaw sounds about right for some of the big outboards
screaming past my place when the lake is calm.
