Hi all,
I guess that there is not too much mystery to my name and avatar. I have been coming up to the lake since my high school days (before electricity
). At that time, one of my classmates had a family compound a bit south of Wolfboro harbor. We would come up and take the sailboat out and go waterskiing.
In the 80s, my brother bought a house on Paugus Bay with his partners and we used that until he sold it in the mid 90s. During the 80s, standups were the only watercraft generally available (until around 87) and several of us were the original jetskiers on the lake. Riding a standup for a full day was a significant workout! Alas, I was slightly younger back then.
In 1998, I co-founded a telecommunications startup and vowed that if it were successful, I would buy a place on the lake. We sold the company in 2002 and I bought a place in South Down the same year.
These days I am relegated to my GTX-4TEC and my new boat. I gave my 750SX to my brother in law and sometimes regret it as I get the urge to ride a standup. Of course, after a few hours of muscling it around, the urge passes.
Nuff Said
Jetskier
