Have the Feds contact the Chinese, they will rebuild it and put a base there. More tourist traffic !!

Illicit dredging of public waters by people who thought it was a navigational hazard. They were sick of having to mark it with a milk jug every year. We'll need to have a written complaint before we can take action on it.

Navionics also shows Gilford Beach is in the vicinity of The Witches.

Just saying . . .

The folks at Navionics are very nice and helpful too!

I once reported a problem on one of their software charts, but didn't expect them to care much about our Lake, but they got it researched and fixed within about a month or two.

I was impressed!

If you see it on their website app, then it will probably be on their current software charts for on board chart plotters if you have an updated copy.

I don't know if it's still true, but they were using Bizer as a data source for their Winnipesaukee chart at the time.
