I know from experiance sailing my H16 of ignorant power boaters out there. Many a time i have come close to taking out a power boater or a PWC.

I would like to see tighter legislation myself for owners of boats where they need to renew their drivers license for boats every 3 years like their car drivers license. This way they would have to take a test and refresh the knowledge of the rules of the road for boating.

I dont know if this will help, but if people had a regular license for their boats that could be taken away like their drivers license for their cars, they might think twice about what they are doing.
