Each day of the weekend, at least
one MP spent over an hour in-and-around the Marriott Compound. The MP passed closely
by me when I sailed past, headed for The Broads.
I
believe I saw OCD running past Rattlesnake Island—westbound on Saturday—then a bit later off flasher #9—eastbound—perhaps doing a clockwise circuit around the lake.
The "usual offenders" were out there Saturday—totally unseen by the MPs.
One "usual offender", with a chrome-flash-graphic, tested his "Captain's Choice" repeatedly off our shores.
Sunday morning was relatively quiet in the area, with the wind picking up strongly in the afternoon.
Monday, one MP boat left the Gilford area taking a ½-hour cruise across The Broads, saving fuel (?) while once again heading to the Marriott Compound.
(And right-through where the "usual offenders" were on Saturday). 
Tuesday morning, The Broads were occupied by three sailboats—
and nobody else! We were later treated to a terrific show by a
very skilled water-skier enjoying the nice weather and smooth waters, directly off Rattlesnake Island. Only a very few powerboats transited The Broads, quietly heading hither and yon.
Wednesday morning, it's been drizzling—kinda normal for June—so today offers "that opportunity" to catch up on chores in town. (Maybe pay my semi-annual property tax "premium").
