...... just whistle!
Usually, if you have a problem on Winnipesaukee like a flipped or capsized boat or sail boat or kayak or canoe or paddle board or aqua bicycle or something, there's like five other boats on the scene to help......like....before the Marine Patrol even gets there.
April 1st is the opening day for Community Sailing on the Charles River in Boston, and they probably have someone watching the sails from up to 2-miles away through binoculars from their dock, and of course they have a rescue motor boat with a pump, all ready to get out there....and when someone flips a sailboat....you just stay with the boat and crawl up out of the cold water as much as possible.....and oh yeah.....u want to be wearing a big tight pfd that has a loud whistle and maybe a white paddle to wave around or something.
With no other boats out there, and the cold cold cold water...it should make me think twice about getting out in my sailboat......
