Final Statements on HB-162

Bear Lover you make a great point. Many of the marinas in favor of the speed limits have no problems renting underpowered pontoon or small fishing boats to novice boaters with no knowledge of the lake. With a new map in hand, these individuals attempt to navigate the lake, in any conditions, in boats that are barely sea worthy. It's all about the $$$.

I do not own a go-fast boat. If those in favor of speed limits on the water believe that a majority of NH voters want speed limits and should rule, then those voters should be limited to registered boat owners in NH and not include anyone who needs a road map to find Lake Winnipesaukee.
