LOL! My kind of thinking regarding pointless bureaucracy.
Reminds me of how it's illegal to be in a boat without access to a life jacket, but perfectly legal to be in the lake without one. If someone ever got pulled over and asked about it, just jump in the lake.
... and I very reluctantly have become open to the idea of owning a boat. The progression went like this. I miss my standup jetski that was stolen and want to replace it. Now that I have a family, it's selfish to buy a single occupancy toy. Sit down jetski that seats 3 and can tow tubes, then. Except I've got a family of 4 now, so need something bigger. Then, if I want to spend time with my best friend and his family of 5, I'm gonna need a bigger boat.
