An introduction and a question:
I’m just curious how many people own waterfront, but do not own a power boat? Or, they do, but it doesn’t make it into the water some years. The past few years we have Rented a house on Winnisquam and rented a boat for a few days each year ( I was really surprised what you can get now if you have a boat license and a credit card ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I have a little boat history, here’s the short version of a very long story: In the 60’s my Parents kept a 17’ Wooden Chris Craft ski boat in the boathouse at Slocum’s Marina (now Winnisquam Marine); we mostly day-tripped with an extended rental every year. Then moved to the Big lake for a few years, then Parent’s divorce and the boat disappeared for a while. My Dad and I brought it back to life in ’81, but it never had a “home”; it was trailered around NH and MA. Eventually my Dad rented a house on a small lake in central MA and it was happy to stay in the water….. then one day in ‘95 I got a phone call saying “ I sold the Chris Craft and bought a 40’ bayliner and heading to FLA” ![]() ![]() ![]() Hence, my user name. Unfortunately my Dad is gone, so he cannot see that we were able to fulfill one of his dreams… our own slice of Heaven on the water. |
