Nope, still not seeing 1992, as a matter of fact if the information contained is correct I have only posted twice since the post date of 2006!

Something that I did learn during my trip to the coast of Maine that I will pass along. While out on Winnipesaukee in the past I have heard the Coast Guard Portland on my VHF radio issue a "Securite" for severe weather information and been instructed to switch to channel 22 Alpha. I never bothered to switch to 22 Alpha assuming that the severe weather information pertained only to the coast of Maine and not interior NH.

After these past couple of weeks, learning the NHMP doesn't issue these weather warnings to NH boaters, but the Coast Guard in Maine does issue a broadcast when severe weather is in the Winnipesaukee area, I'll be switching to channel 22 Alpha to make certain.

It's funny though, after a number of my "rants" about the way NH does business or about the NHMP I have read several others make the very same suggestions I was bashed for several months later...so when I suggest something that might make something easier or clear up an ambiguity it's just me trying to make NH more like Mass because I'm from "away"?

That's mighty neighborly of ya'll, so I'll take the money I generate in NH and spend it in a place that is actually friendly to folks from "away"

Yep, careful what you wish for...you might get it. No, not me leaving, just my disposable income leaving and more importantly others with disposable income finding other resort communities that are happy to see us
