Even if a legal boater hits and injures a manatee, we want them to feel compelled to call in authorities to rescue the animal and not flee for fear of prosecution. Now if boaters are speeding in a slow zone, well, laws are there for that.

Because Putnam and Volusia counties have manatee viewing as a spring and summertime tourist attraction, the need to be safe is imperative and the boaters are very cognizant of them being in the water. We are not big fans of people swimming with manatees, but manatee viewing is something everyone should do before they die. It is that awesome. People have a heightened awareness of manatees after actually seeing them.
