One other neighbor, here on Lake Winnipesaukee, would alarm most of us with the choice of his dreamed-for performance boat!

Now for the "Uh-oh"...

The economy keeps him in his old, wooden classic 26-footer.


Speaking of tubers, I saw one skipper last week who stood astride the helm, occasionally glancing over his shoulder ahead, then alternately turning to smile proudly at his gifted offspring. I couldn't see any "observers".
