Marking Rocks with a buoy?

[fatlazyless]

The Town of Center Harbor has a newly installed park bench in the grass lawn area at their Lake Winnipesaukee town docks commemorating Tup Goodhue, with a plaque on it that says he was the keeper of Nipple Rock since 1960.

Nipple Rock is a rock ledge type of boat hazard with a recognizable shape above the lake water surface, located out there between Round, Camp, Breezy, Forty, and Fish Islands. So for 60-years of ice, wind, rain, sun and water spray, Tup kept the Nipple Rock paint job looking good with a new paint re-do.

The ultimate rock marker: Laconia Daily Sun, April 6, 2016 says in a brief article with a photo that local airplane pilot Bill Hemmel reports that Nipple Rock looks like it has been painted with a coat of bright new paint.

Nipple Rock has Flasher Buoy 46 atop it, plus is painted with red and white paint over the last sixty years.

Nipple Rock is looking for a secret volunteer artist to maintain and carry forward the sixty year long tradition of painting it with red and white paint.

Anyone know, was April 2016 the last time it got freshened up with new paint?
