Except for a trip to the Hilo and to visit a friend. Miss Francis (veggie lady) will be here soon and her produce is fresh and good. I have some pix from other days which I haven't posted so here goes.
Here is one of the white 2 person boats spoken of in another thread. I didn't have time to zoom in.
This was a lucky photo of a Dr. Bird.

Great pictures as always,thanks for sharing!
There has been lots of discussion on this board about the 2 seat speed boats being to close to the shore and the 3rd picture here is proof that this is a legitimate concern. Granted, it looks like the camera was zoomed in but it still appears that boat is well within the 600' zone where boats of that size can't be, and it sure appears that he is very close to the swim line. Someone, the marine police, Negril Chamber of Commerce, someone has to be in touch with with The Royalton and stop this before there is another tragedy occurs.
Brownsd54,
I am not aware of any 600ft rule that you are mentioning. There was a "5 year plan" submitted for 2013 which would have ended as of 2018. This is the plan you mentioned in the speed boat thread. As I stated in that thread, there has never been a non-motorized float ball marker line, so the plan, as submitted, was never implemented. The boats run in the same area as do the parasail boats and the boats that pull the couch/float thing. If the Royalton is abiding by the laws and staying out of the marked swimming areas as they are appearing to do by all accounts, another tragedy cannot occur.
As I have stated, they seem too close to me, but so do the other boating activities I mentioned. I wonder why absolutely no one is making any such complaints or statements about them?
And if you look at SLP's picture closely, you will notice that no one, even the person in the water, is taking notice of the boat.

And you are right Rob, nobody seems to be paying any attention to that boat in the picture. To be honest, those boats look like a lot of fun, but boats and swimmers should never be in the same general area. That just spells disaster.
