If I can change the subject:
1) My first boats (1956) were docked with a line to the dock and one to a shoreline tree. Today, that would result in both boats (canoe and rowboat) being sunk to the sand--THEN getting beat up even more.
2) Vermont (next door) restricts "wake sports" to 500 feet from shore. Looking across Winter Harbor, even that seems an insufficient distance. A few years ago, wading neighbors' children were knocked over. On a recent shallow venture,
even I was knocked off my feet. (!).
3) In an experiment from yesterday, I filled an ice tray with lake water and one with spring water. This morning, one ice tray had clear ice cubes while the other cubes were clearly
green. In the bloated waters of late June, the cubes would've been brownish-gray.
4) Big boats should pay for remediation of Lake Winnipesaukee. I suggested 15 years ago that large displacement boats should face a doubling of fees. Now I think boats equipped with "wake-makers" should face a tripling of boating fees.
Then, maybe NH will find a way to pay for the lake's increasingly-obvious ailments.
Maybe complete facilities and infrastructure to handle the region's sewage load?
