Today, 8:51 AMYou The water level at the Volusia County boat ramps remains high. The Volusia County Sheriffs office has recommended ramps remain closed. Submerged hazards continue to be a safety concern. Many boat launch docks remain underwater. I will continue to work with the Sheriffs office on this matter. If I can assist you further please let me know. Thank you! Tim Baylie <[email protected]>
In respectful homage to "TP" Tom Petty, the waiting is going to be the hardest part....
So one of my buddies has had the following email conversation with Volusia County Sherriff Chitwood regarding the no wake restriction (just FYI):
Goodafternoon Sheriff Chitwood,
I nolonger see a posting on the Volusia county emergency management PIN updatesabout the St. John's being no wake in Volusia County. Has the no wakerestriction been lifted?
Thankyou for your time.
Sheriff Response:
Concerned Citizen,
There is a legal issue concerning the Sheriffissuing no wake zones. County legal is trying to sort it out.
Hope this helps,
Sheriff Chitwood
Whaaaaaat?Quote:

Looks like the way Volusia County issued the initial no wake zone wasn't legally correct somehow. I would call the Volusia county sheriffs office for clarification if you plan on waking. But the way I read it, you can wake as long as your in Volusia Co waters.
where is lake Monroe ? What Town is it close too?

the legality issue of making it no wake is that they really don't have jurisdiction. navigable waterways fall under coast guard I believe. ...there could also be the issue of Monroe splits volusia/seminole, and the dividing line is not explicitly marked, so who's is it to make that call?
this is all "I think"
My thought is about the home and property owners that would be affected by the wake we might generate. The water is higher than I've ever seen it and if it were at my back door I would hope that those using the waterway would show some consideration for me and the loss it might cause. Just my two cents.

180 grains of copper plated lead traveling about 2600fps through a motor cowling will convince a bunch of people to respect your property. Seen how well it convinces a person in south Louisiana one time. Fellar even had signs up warning people to slow down or get shot. We always idled by his place. That one feller paddled a long way back to the ramp.Quote:
