Rick - I hear people say this pretty often. But is that really the case? I can't imagine a boat being built in the last twenty years that didn't have holding tanks so there can't be a single boat in the entire charter fleet that doesn't have tanks. So seems this is surely an issue only on older boats. Will these boats have to install tanks or will they be exempt? And how many of those boats are actively lived on and dumping overboard now? I am curious to know the real number on this, but it's probably not a number that can be obtained without some govt. collection of data. If the boats polluting the bays are the ones that are discharging overboard then having the boats with tanks go out - presumably 3 miles - to dump isn't going to make any difference on the water quality in the bays. I like/want clean water but I wonder if this new regulation is going to achieve the goal. IMHO a better place to start would be to mandate all boats have black water holding tanks.
