The only time I was ever harassed by the cops for being overweight we were riding in navigable waters on the Columbia at the hydro races. The Coast Guard didn't like seeing all that water ballast in the boat & made us drain it. So now we use lead instead...... same effect & out of sight!
And look at the bright side, if it ever sinks, it'll never be 1/2 sunk, it'll go straight to the bottom!!
