There is a limit to how much information you can put on a sign otherwise you could add another link to this site: http://www.gencourt.state.nh.us/rule.../saf-c400.html

(this is not directed at Chipj29)
Don't hide the rules or make it hard to find them and then complain that visitors ignore those rules so let's make more laws. It's like a turtle that pulls it's head in it's shell so it doesn't see everything that is really going on and won't stick it's neck out to face reality!

I'm in favor of the ideals of the group Safe Boaters Of New Hampshire http://sbonh.org and have signed their petition.
Hi Hammond,

To take your idea one step further, if MP is willing to give us enough copies of the handbook, SBONH could attach some weather tight boxes (like the real estate signs have sometimes) and fill with handbooks at some of the key public ramps.
