Hello everyone!

I just found this place - great forum you have here!

I bought a new boat last year (20' CC) which will mostly see salt water use. I have a seasonal camp in Warren and I thought it would be great to bring the boat some weekends and make the drive to Winnipesaukee for some family fun - tubing, swimming and cruising.

I'll be getting a chart of course but I wanted to start by asking about a good swimming spot. I know there's a popular sandbar but I'd like a less popular area

. When visiting boating forums, I'm always seeing pics of boats pulled right up to a beach. Is there any place where that is allowed? (I'm pretty sure that is a no-no but I wanted to ask). Anyway, I don't think my mother in-law really wants to get out of the boat in deep water so I was hoping to find a swimming spot that suits our needs.

Thanks in advance.

See you on the lake!

PS - everyone usually likes pics so I'll share a couple. Here's the new boat:

At Salisbury res:

my fishing partner and first mate:

his first fish in the new boat:

dogfish are a pain but he was happy LOL.

I hope to have some lake boating pics to show in the near future!
