Just an FYI, on a missing marker noticed yesterday for folks getting out on the water early this year for 2017 before Marine Patrol has a chance to repair them. I believe this is also a lighted buoy as well. While it is not uncommon for the lighted marker to be taken out for the winter and still be out at this time of the year. The companion black top seems to be gone as well. It's some what of an open area here and there are several in this part of the lake. I usually count all of them to make sure I go around the hazards here and not go in between them. With one missing (at the moment) it is really easy to make the turn around the hazards way to early (going south) or (late going north) and get yourself in trouble. Again just an FYI, for the early season boaters, I'm sure marine patrol will have this repaired soon.

Anyone know for sure if this is a lighted buoy? Or it's number if it is.

Repaired and replaced and ready for the 2017 boating season.

The black top marker to the east of the Twin Islands, near Lane's End Marina, is missing. Probably best to stay on the Moultonboro side of the bay if you dont know where that marker should be.

I noticed it was missing also.

I believe the marker is there but submerged below the high water level...so be careful in that area.

The Meredith no wake zone has moved East by almost 1/4 mile.

The red buoy west of Dollar I$land is back in place. The new buoy is "taller" with a sufficient amount of white visible, therefore easier to spot in wavy conditions. Thanks MP. 🐻

This marker was replaced in early to mid summer 2017.

Perfect! That's our tubing and skiing area lol and with that many markers I would never have noticed one missing ... and gotten myself in trouble. Thank you for the update!

I noticed that someone had hit the southern red marker off Dolly Island earlier this week leaving just the white pole. The next day the marker was missing but was replaced the following day with a new one. Thank you Marine Patrol for a speedy replacement!
