I think the old men with there shirts off is an eye sore, but the boat looks pretty good.

I am not bashing the Dive-- I think it is a great adventure and wish them luck and hope it is long term successful after all their expense. It should be considered a welcome addition to the Lake whether you plan try it out or find it "not your style"

The one thing the recent picture raised in my mind -- as a NH Health code - aren't shoes suppose to be worn where food is being served ?

It is a legit question of mine.

I am not sure the photo posted was legit customers or Staged photo as all the prior photo's have been. I suspect staged as not a sole has come out and said they've been aboard as yet.

Not sure about the law, but I have seen many hop off their boat at Town Docks and eat with no shoes on at the restaurant

I was actually thinking of Town Docks when I wrote the above -- I believe they have a sign for shirts & shoes must be worn


Something witty along the lines of NO Shirt, No Shoes , No Service.

I am not sure that using a forum with 30-50 regular posters is the best benchmark for determining any aspect of The Dive's success or failure. Plus, it has only been a week or two.

I wondered the same thing, but did see somebody say they went on it. I think his name was Ryan?

Phantom is Befuddled

Where did I raise any questions of Success or failure based on forum members ? In my opening remark - I simply wished the new owners "Best of Luck" and the Lake as a whole should embrace the new venture whether its your cup of tea or not.

My post was a legit question about the need for shoes (and/or shirts) to be worn in an eating establishment in NH …………. period the end -- whether the Dive or Patrick's Pub -- irrelevant of location


My comment on the pic being Staged, as you should know, the Dive is not yet OPEN for business commercially as of this date and all photographs till now have been staged (and I am NOT saying that is bad either). The point being if NH law requires, at minimum, shoes be worn then they oooops'd in the photo! which is what brought the question to mind in the first place (barefoot patrons).

Not sure I understand your post where you say "they are not open commercially" and photos are "staged". They have been at Smalls Cove all week except today according to their Facebook page and posts to that page with patrons visiting the vessel. Am I missing something? Honest question

I'm not sure what you mean by the Dive is not open for business commercially?? Saw them selling food and drink last weekend at West Alton Sandbar as well as this week...

Pics on their facebook page have not been staged. Friends of mine were on it very recently and their picture showed up on their facebook page.

I think if the pics were staged the "talent" would be of a higher caliber?

NAH, She may not have known it was operational. Shame on those that make disparaging comments without the same knowledge

Not sure about being staged but no one on board seems to have food or a drink not much money being made

The Nasswa promotes no shoes and shirts.
When you dock the dock hands tell you.
NO SHOES
NO SHIRTS
NO PROBLEM
