I read the report in the link to WMUR, and it seems that either the reporter got some facts wrong or knows little about the local geography. It said that the kayaker overturned near the Long Island bridge, then stayed with the kayak and swam toward Dow Island. Uhmmm, if he overturned near the bridge, why wouldn't he have swum over toward the beach? Why would he swim, what, a mile and a half downlake to Dow? I speculate that he overturned nearer Dow. Maybe he just put in at the LI beach by the bridge. Does anyone know the real story?
