OK, but so what? They're here. If you move to a new neighborhood and the
locals don't like your family, is it OK for them to run you down with their
cars? :-)

Doug,
Off course not. Stay on topic.:-) Cars no! Now with boats, it's okay.

This may be a stretch, but I think I can imply from your comment that if I
can knock jetski slobs off their craft, I can run them over. :-)

No, no, you can't "knock [them -tks] off" with your boat, you must
use something like the Poop cannon holding tank evacuation device to
blow them off, then throw then a bunch of biodegradable T.P., then
you can sail over them over in the confusion, all by accident, of
course.

The undeniable truth we must face is that PWCs will not slice up
manatees like a prop would. They may, however give the manatees huge
linear hickies.

Do you think that would raise their social standing with other
manatees, like the kids seem to think publicly displayed hickies do?

Maybe we need regulations so that PWCs all go to manatee
reservations to boost their morale, and ours?

This cabin fever is getting out of hand.

I think the hickies might cause a drop in their population. Think about it:

Mrs Manatee: Hmmm....what's that mark on your neck?
Mr. Manatee: Umm...I ran into a door.
Mrs. Manatee: Yeah right. You can sleep over by that big oyster for the next
month or three, you *******!

Doug,
Only if they're new to the neighborhood and you're one of the locals.

Paul:
Thank you for pointing out this idea. I've been designing bow storage for my
14' Lund yacht, and this message arrived just in time for me to relocate
such useless features as anchor brackets and fire extinguisher to make room
for some sort of tripod for the front of the missile. One problem: I don't
see these missiles at the West Marine web site. However, there's a meat
market near me which advertises halel products, for Muslims. Perhaps this
would be a good lead for finding such weaponry.

your arguments are childish, probably from you lack of experience, and bogus
email name.

Bill,Your a coward, hiding behind it. but then,,,,that figures.

Guess I asked for it, trying to post on topic, with factual information,
instead of grade school banter.

Info from SaveTheManatee.org:

Fossil remains of manatee ancestors show they have inhabited Florida for
about 45 million years. Modern manatees have been in Florida for over one
million years (probably with intermittent absences during the Ice Ages);
i.e., a lot longer than people have lived here. The present Florida manatee
(Trichechus manatus latirostris) is a subspecies endemic to Florida. Genetic
studies to date indicate that it is not derived from the populations in
Mexico or Central America, but more likely colonized Florida from the
Greater Antilles thousands of years ago, after the last Ice Age. However,
there is no evidence that manatees are now entering Florida from Central
America, the Caribbean, or anywhere else. The manatees in Florida today have
every right to be considered Florida natives.
