Taz, Bizer is updated. I looked at the corrections pages for the latest editions of both maps at their respective web sites today, July 23rd, 2009:

Bizer's 8th edition corrections page has the following information:
The No-Rafting area in/at/near Advent Cove in Meredith was omitted from publication.
The No-Rafting area in/at/near East Cove on Long Island was omitted from publication.

The Duncan Press Inc 2005 edition corrections page has:
Winnipesaukee 2005 Addition No Rafting Zone added Advent Cove in Meredith E-5 5/28/07 Marine Patrol

The East Cove area NRZ is not mentioned anywhere I can see on the Duncan Press site. Neither NRZ would be on their map as the NRZs were created a few years after Duncan's latest edition - the 2005 map - was printed.

BTW, everyone will have their favorite map to use for navigation around Lake Winnipesaukee - Bizer or Duncan. I carry BOTH on board the Sea Que but I prefer to use the Bizer map. Bizer is also good on cold rainy nights when the family gathers around the map with magnifying glasses looking for little tidbits to amuse ourselves .

Regardless of which one you like best, have at least ONE of them on board when you boat and boat safely.
