I
can fully understand the "need for speed".
But I bothered to have the medical checkups, the training, the eyesight exams, the experience, the head-gear, the body-gear, the inspections, the organizational excellence, the exacting locations and the overwhelming safety considerations for those speeds—
which in most cases didn't see the extreme speeds showcased on Winnipesaukee.
Having "first-hand" observations of extreme speed on Lake Winnipesaukee is never what I had in mind.
