Here's WMUR's article.I had thought I heard Lynch was leaning towards a veto on this bill but this piece says the opposite.


Boat Speed Limits Approved For Winnipesaukee

CONCORD, N.H. -- It looks like some boaters will have to slow down on Lake Winnipesaukee next summer.

The Senate passed trial speed limits on Thursday for the state's biggest lake and the plan is on its way to Gov. John Lynch's desk. He has said he will sign it.

The speed limits would go into effect on Jan. 1.

Boat speed limits have been debated for years. The plan that has been approved differs from past plans because it applies only to Winnipesaukee and would go off the books in two years. The bill sets speed limits at 45 miles per hour during the day and 25 miles per hour at night.
