I agree that congestion is getting to be a problem.. it was once just a nuisance on holiday weekends, but I have been hoping it would plateau. Maybe NH could take a lesson from NY (not the speed limit part) and reserve more public land on the waterfront. I'm more concerned about preserving what makes the lake great than safety (as if boating were so dangerous).
I definitely think that the lake has something for everyone, whether they want to canoe between islands or throw a rooster-tail, but I also believe that there becomes a point when the sheer amount of congestion and commercial development ruins it. That being said, how about giving some more alternatives that would keep the lake enjoyable for the long-term (besides a bloody speed limit
) ?
