I remember it well. putt putting around the lake until my plugs were fouled! I had to scramble to find a repair shop that still have those spark plug cleaners! Most of them chuck the machines as plugs at the time were almost buck a piece!
When the MP finally release the 'no wake' sanction, WMUR was at the Glendale Dock and interviewed me and the family. The crew ask me the put my hand on the throttle and pretend I am going full speed! The clip was shown during the evening news. I was boating at the time and waited till 11 PM for the news. The just showed the throttle action, and cut the rest.
