Meredith Bay no wake zone

I won't Flame you ! ....... the run into Meredith Town docks is now AGONIZINGLY long. Who knew that a silly few hundred extra feet could have such an impact and unless I am forced to will not bother with Meredith by Boat any longer. Too bad, cuz we use to frequent the restaurants there.

If more people feel the same as you then maybe it will shorten the wait time for dock space. So something good could come from it.

Not that my vote counts -- but I would be much more in favor of the "blue" line being the NWZ. This gives Meredith Marine some protection as well.

Don't get me wrong, I boated here before the NWZ was in place (know the reasons why) and ultimately think it helps protect boats docked at te Public docks.

"the run into Meredith Town docks is now AGONIZINGLY long"

Even more so when you are being nice, and 3 different tools zoom past you in the long NWZ to get to the 2 open dock slips on a Friday evening, and you end up sitting in the wind trying to maintain station waiting for a slip for 20 mins before turning around and NWZ'ing it back to NASWA for nachos.

Bingo. I see more boats breaking the no wake law now that the zone is a little larger. In addition, more "tools" are still breaking the law on many other NWZS.
I shake my head out there all the time in disbelief.
