Ever since the speed limit debate began we have been told by the opposition that if it passes the lakes area will be economically devastated.
They claim that millions in high speed boat sales, service, hotel and restaurant revenues will be lost. Many people testified to this at the hearings two years ago.
Now we are supposed to believe that nothing will be changed by a speed limit! The old argument was not working so they will try a new one.
Boats that have moved another body of water can not be breaking the speed limit on Lake Winnipesaukee. That makes a speed limit self enforcing. They will not be speeding, because they will not be here!
And the lake will be a little quieter, less hectic and less polluted.
