The posting with the link works fine.

They must not have a 150' no wake rule up at the North Pole!

When I first read this, I thought about my brother in law telling me stories about them skiing when the ice first went out. When he was over my house on Christmas night, he said he and his son and Danny from East Coast Flightcraft just went skiing on Wolfboro bay last week (so I be it was him you saw). He said when they backed the boat in there was some snow on the ramp that they had to shovel away and a thin layer of ice on the shore. But they were well equipped with wet/dry suits and they had a blast. Literally had the whole lake to themselves. So, "plain stupid" to some..... for whatever reason, but plain fun for others doing what they love to do.

It could have been but I also heard it was GH, the owner of "The Restaurant". I guess it could have been both of them. It was around lunchtime because we were at Downtown Grill.

Hello to all who have viewed this post. I have over the last four years tried to provide some Holiday entertainment for all to ENJOY by dressing up as Santa as close to Christmas as I can and have some FUN on the lake. I am sure the spirited folks who went for an end of the year water ski were doing much the same.

It's truly unfortunate some responders see this spirited fun with a negative view or some level of criticism! BA HUM BUG!

To all others Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year for another great year on the lake

It's fun to see someone do something like that, but it is just plain dangerous. AS I have said before, my cousin's husband died from waterskiing on a cool damp weekend in Oct. He had a wetsuit on but apparently got too chilled and got hypothermia and died. He was only 42. It was horrible!
