A decade or so ago a select user group was able to get a boating motor restriction through in the pamphlet that the locals promptly ignored. Part of which was because several existing docks and a boat basin were long used for "illegal" purposes. They clarified the regulation a couple years later, and a couple years after that the restriction disappeared completely.



If actually a rule change in the pamphlet it was possibly initiated internally by WDFW LE.

There are other regs in place with origins in rather obscure (I am being PC) LE rationalizations.
