Never mind build a dock on the broads.

I was too young to remember most names, but there was a member of Winter Harbor Yacht Club who had a Rattlesnake on the transom of his boat. I was told he was the owner of Rattlesnake Island. Was that Melanson? Or did he sell to Melanson? In the 50's the lake chart had a measured mile marked on Rattlesnake. There was a makeshift flagpole with a red flag at the summit.
