Committee approves H 887 to permit two-person ski-boat operation before 9 a.m.
Summary
H 887 would expand water-skiing regulations to allow operation by a driver and skier before 9 a.m.; the committee sent the bill to the floor with a DO PASS recommendation.
Rep. Sauter (D1) presented H 887 saying the legislation allows an expansion of water-skiing regulations so that just a driver and skier can operate a ski boat early in the morning before 9 a.m. Rep. Mickelsen moved to send H 887 to the floor with a DO PASS recommendation; the motion carried by voice vote and Rep. Sauter will sponsor the bill on the floor.
