WinnFABS was created for one purpose. It raised funds telling people the money was for that one purpose. To expend that money elsewhere would be wrong.

It is not for you to determine what the alliance's goals should be. You are free to start your own organization and have whatever goals you wish.

Some people try to build, while other only try to tear down.

BI, if the concern is safety and accidents and the compelling data shows that alcohol is the primary concern it just demonstrates that WinnFabs has motives beyond curtailing the speed of boats IMO. Some of us are intelligent enough to have LONG-TERM thinking.

Every time Warren Hutchins continues his diarrea of the mouth, he talks about the size and quantity of boats. That's going beyond safety and don't try and say otherwise.

WinnFabs' motives for promoting the speed limits were selfish. They wanted Winnipesaukee to be like it was in the 19th Century, before there were any motorized boating. They illustrated imagianary encounters with small children in Kayaks and canoes. They think that all motorized boating is bad. The only boats THEY think should be on the lake are non-motorized. Progress moves on, despite their wishes. Bear Islander thinks horsepower should be limited on the lake, and yet he has no problem shooting off into space on a rocketship which could endanger thousands of lives if something goes wrong! Ask him. He won't deny it! Talk about, do as I say, not as I do!
