i read something awhile back, that more people die fishing that any other sport.... and that most boating accidents are by fishermen.. could be wrong though.

Grouch,

I think it would be a tradgedy if they removed the law, people do die of from not wearing life jackets, and removing the law for a few wakeskaters who think there buff is not a good idea
