What building was the restaurant in? I started coming to the era in the 70s and don't recall the Pirate's Den.

It is now the Windrifter-the one on the lake-the last part of the building toward the dock.

I used to have the upstairs section of that building as a "Windrifter" timeshare. I sold it because at the time "Windrifter" was having some serious management problems. I kinda miss not have that timeshare because I could use the docks for that week.

I didn't know that it was once a restaurant.

Before it was the Pirate's Den it was called the Brightwater Inn, a hostelry run by a Swedish couple.

Thanks Old Coot. If you go that far back I'll bet that you remember the notorious "Been Gassy" and clueless "LL" duo. They made a real impression in that area of wolfeboro. If I remember correctly "Been" used to be the lead member and "LL" was his echo. Rumor has it that they are a cyberspace team now.
Do you remember them?

Yes Rusty, I well remember them. My memory is pretty robust and that toxic twosome were the bane of a once thriving area forum. I won't forget them and neither will you I suspect.
