The water run requires about 50 miles to complete a round trip. There are 3.5 hours alloted to the run so an average speed of about 15 MPH is required. That's well within any proposed speed limit. You could have even more time if you started at Alton Bay (you have to end at the Naswa)

I'd rather be Citgo than the Easter Seals. The registration fee is $45 and I assume Easter Seals gets a big chunk of that. But 50 miles at about 1 MPG and $3.00 a gallon is $150.

Relax, I'm just joking around, I know it's for a good cause and many of those boats would be out on the water burning fuel anyway. Plus Easter Seals will make a bunch of money off the raffles.
