Thanks Dash... I will be dressed in all white and barefoot .. with an open Mandarin Collar shirt and a fitted white embroided vest. It appears when I arrive Monday I will just have to go hunt around Lucea to find a rental. I am bringing some Factory Yamaha Team Gear as a reward to the renter. In reference to environmental impact.. Many studies have been done by the E.P.A. and other agencies on true environmental impact.( ref: Mission Bay Enviro Impact Study and U.S.Coast Guard Small Watercraft emission study for starters) That is why all PWCs ( the correct name for a Jet Ski ) have been converted to EFI Four Strokes and absolutely no 2 Strokes have been produced in many years. While the 2 stroke emissions did include a very small PPM of oil, there is ZERO oil in the emission from a 4 stroke PWC. There is a minuscule amount of hydrocarbon and inert product released into the water from a 4-stroke EFI and pales heavily in comparison to a boat motor. Especially the poorly kept 2 stroke outboards which I see everywhere on the island which do indeed emit oil and unburned fuel product in the water leaving a trail, and really bad in some cases because the operators run those boat motors very "rich" ( to help improve the longevity before breakdown) which puts a lot more unburned gas and oil into the water. I have been seeing more and more 4 stroke PWC over the last few years in my semi annual trips to JM which is good. I would also say that since more than half of Jamaica's GNP is tourist driven ( external dollars bought into the country as well as rollover economic affect f those in employ by such said leisure industries...) finding ways to make things work better for that industry rather than hinder it, would always be a wiser choice in the grand scheme. It is better when people get along and work together rather than work against each other.
I need a new board name.
