FL44 is on the north route around Eagle Island.
FL3 is at the south end of the channel between Meredith and Bear Island
FL5 is by One Mile Island
FL23 is by Sandy Point
FL29 is at the south end of Bear Island
FL14 and FL15 are at the ends of a long stretch of narrow navigable passages in Moultonborough Bay
The Graveyard is between Melvin Island and Spectacle Island.

All these choke points are perfectly navigable on plane and not terribly challenging, but often confuse folks that are not prepared and they tend to slow down smack in the middle of them. There's often two-way traffic and a slowed or stopped boat makes everyone slow to avoid breaking the safe passage law.
