During the week the place is a ghost town, I am not sure what Winnipesaukee you are talking about...I am sure the few boats that are out and about are always coming close to running you down. Gimme a break. And the fact that these so called close calls are always performance boats traveling at high speeds sounds like an even bigger load...
While we are on the subject, you don't find it dangerous to be out in the middle of the broads in 4-5' waves on "busy" days? With 4-5' waves you will be out of sight as much as you will be in sight unless you are as tall as big bird, and as bright yellow. Take into account other factors such as glare/visibility, wind, etc and you are endangering youself and people in other vessels, including power boats.
