Default It's flat...and quiet here.

Living on two lakes, I have a unique perspective.

We have roughly the same mix of boats on my Florida lake as does Winnipesaukee: Jet-Skis, GFBLs, Bass Boats, bow-riders, and lots of pontoon boats. Excepting airboats, noise isn't a factor! Why is that?

Because Lake Winnipesaukee is surrounded by steep shorelines, hills, islands and mountains, it's most likely that noise is echoed by the landscape. (Something that can't happen on Florida lakes).

That's why Lake Winnipesaukee is very special, and needs to be safeguarded from intrusions.
