Early Chart of Lake Winnipesaukee Before It Was Dammed...

Dammed at Paugus Bay, not damned by oversized Ocean Racers.





I wonder how this chart comports with the 150-foot rule, regarding illegal speeds along the shoreline?

It would have been a good post if you hadn't jumped on your soapbox. You are truly a buffoon.

Wouldn't you like to have the lake "the way it was"? Peaceful—with boaters enjoying tubing, sailing, paddling, water-skiing, or just floating around?



BTW: If you'd kept an aquarium, you'd know not to put aggressive fish into a tank with "peaceable" fish. It would have worked for our dearly-departed boaters—but NO—you had to have the noise and speed of "Winnipesaukee Cowboys".

Here, I looked it up for you:

When starting a community it is a good idea to make a written selection of fish that have all been researched and that all require the same water chemistry, have a similar temperament, and are generally the same size. Always properly research a type of fish before you purchase one.

Following these simple guidelines will help you build a community that is a pleasure to have, rather than one that goes from one problem to the next.

I spend most of my time enjoying tubing, sailing, paddling, water-skiing, or just floating around... and have yet to have an issue with a go-fast boat (with the exception of thru hull exhausts at docks and NWZs). The lake will never be what it was in 1950 and I am OK with that. We have a great time on this lake and will continue to for years to come. We aren't all the same and I am glad for that! Nor are we fish. Fish don't make and obey rules except for those that nature provides.

Why don't you start?  Sign your property over to a conservancy so it can be returned to "the way it was" and head back to Florida where you can stay year round.

BTW, my boat has been out of the water like that in the Broads in 3-4'ers at under the SL (probably 40 GPS), just last summer during bike week when the storm passed through on Wed. It is a lot of fun if you are capable and your boat has a nice deep V hull with a lot of deadrise.

This isn't the way it was:

Photo is too small, can't see it but it appears to be people enjoying themselves...what kind of hoax distress signal did you send to try to get them off YOUR lake?

I got them moved.

They're somebody else's problem.

You are the WORST kind of scofflaw (to use your own terminology)....issuing false distress signals to get boaters away from "your" lake and then bragging about it.  A while back I seem to remember you posting about a boater in distress that you witnessed near your property...you were commenting on how NO BOATER stopped to help and when I questioned you, you admitted that YOU ALSO DID NOTHING, NOT EVEN A PHONE CALL TO THE MARINE PATROL.

If this were my forum not only would you be banned, but your information would be forwarded to the Marine Patrol and U.S. Coast Guard along with your posts bragging about failure to help a boater in distress and issuing hoax distress signals.

Quite frankly I have no use for you and I truly hope that one day the authorities catch you making one of your hoax distress calls and you spend a good long time in Federal or State prison for it.

OO OUT

NH, I can't believe you posted that. It sounds like Communism, where everybody and everything should be alike. You, who HATES Communism!!! And you want the people of the lake to be all alike????

I enlarged it. If you were the NHMP, would you see a violation?

Or would you say, "I just see people having fun".

You missed out on a Wolfeboro forum which would have done exactly that. (The long-failed forum I called the Stalinist forum, where people could be made to disappear).

They're FISH!



They already live in a Collective.



But for harmony in a community fish tank, it's best that they're all about the same size and same temperament. We already know that the "temperament" of alcohol has changed families' destinies on Lake Winnipesaukee.  

As for size, we can't all have "bigger boats".
