Congratulations!

A comment on Alton Bay - Dave R is correct that Alton is vastly easier than Moultonborough Bay. There are very few markers and all close to shore. Meredith Bay is similar. Regarding the area around Sandy Point and Light #23, the chart shows course lines on the east side of the black-top next to the light and on the west side of the red-top near the Sandy Point swim line, appropriate for the colors of the buoys. If you take the route between the red-top and the swim line, you'll be going within 150 feet of the swim line, thus requiring headway speed.
