Post Water Ski Racing

Back in the late 60's, early 70's, I use to attend the waterski marathons put on by 'Winnipesakee Water Ski Racing Association'. They use to take off from the Weirs and loop around Rattlesnake Island and back. I believe they were 65 milers. Toward the end, there were some pretty fast drag boats! I think there were no noise restrictions then. They were loud!!!! There were a lot of boats and spectators.

The 'Winnisquam Ski and Boat Club' use to have marathons on Lake Winnisquam. Both clubs will invite each other to participate.
