Utah relies on mountain reservoirs, some of which you're not supposed to swim in. That said, some people do. Our water is great. This is beyond silly.

  Not to mention that most of our reservoirs are clogged full of motorboats all summer... (another Utahan here opposed to silly regulations like no dogs in the Cottonwoods when ski areas dump all sorts of petroleum products, animals and backcountry users are everywhere doing all sorts of things)

    Not electric boats? I've heard of electric boats being allowed in reservoirs, but not gas-powered ones.

      An electric boat would still presumably run a motor.

        Yes, but there's no oil or gas to trickle into the reservoir. I wanted clarification because the colloquial term for mechanically powered boats is 'motorboat'.
