Just curious....what's the biggest wake anyone has seen on Winnipesaukee???.
I remember what seemed to be 6 footers with a northwest wind going into Winter harbor
I have seen at least 6 to 8 feet just leaving Wolfeboro Bay and heading up by the neck. A few days of a NW wind can create some huge rollers by the time they reach Wolfeboro Neck. I have dunked my nose on occasion in a 27 foot boat. If you misjudge your speed and the wave frequency. A nice wall of water in your face.
