I come here when I am not on the lake and see nothing but complaints about people doing exactly what you would expect them to do while on the lake.

Whine:
Don't anchor 200+' in front of my house
Don't pull a tube near my house
Your boat made a big wake by my house
The boat was too loud yesterday morning when you started it
The boat was going to fast according to my radar gun eyesight
Passing through a 50 foot channel wahh you weren't 150' away
Someone lit off fireworks at 8PM on a Friday night and 4th of July isn't for another 2 weeks how can I ban this!?
Blah my neighbors put out a swim raft and now I'm forced to have fun
eeeewww The lake has lake type stuff in it and its grosss

Wouldn't say disgruntled, I would say some of the stuff you guys & gals are complaining about is absolutely ridiculous. Why even bother living on the lake at that point? Move back to Mass with the rest of the over the top complainers, otherwise flag me down out there, we'll drag the kids around behind the boat and have a beer, just don't complain you don't like my beer choice.

Welcome to the forum. Where are you on Lake Winnisquam? I might need a place to anchor after I get done tubing the kids behind my 40 foot Cahva that leaves a wicked big wake... Does that cover all bases? Wait, do you have a swim float we can use?

Last I checked this was a discussion on someone getting seriously hurt after getting hit by a boat. First and foremost should be concern for the individual that was injured; cause and blame are what they are and will be decided by those with the facts. Unfortunately accidents can happen to anyone, experienced or otherwise. Education training, etc. can be discussed in other threads, lets try to keep this one from being sent elsewhere.
