Fifteen years ago, the MPs were up to the job; now, however, they've been swamped by too many clueless boaters/Jet-Skiers.
I've had to "call off" the MPs when too much time elapsed between my initial call and the:
1) drunk Jet-Skier and unwilling/underaged/drunk female passenger
2) two small boys in two unlighted boats after dark
3) "go-fast-style-boat" has completed filming his two Jet-Ski buddies jumping his offshore's wake.
4) serial "flasher" in a power boat.
(And that's just what I can recall right now from last season!)
Unfortunately, NH has allowed too many people who want to violate too many rules a "free pass". Boaters and Bikers who couldn't get away with their "antics" in M............ Ma........... [their nearby home state]... do it at Lake Winnipesaukee.
As another has mentioned here, I haven't met one MP officer that wasn't courteous. There's just not enough officers to meet the demand of responsible boaters who want to be safe and left alone.
