Island Lover & PBR...

I don't advocate "skimming". I guess in my post it comes across that way. There have been times to get on or off the ice on Lake Winnipesaukee I have had to cross a few feet of open water. For example, there used to be access to the lake for snowmobiles at the Akwa marina. That area there would get pretty thin from the bubblers and all of the snowmachines that use it. I have also had to cross some small streams in ME. I do not consider it a thrill at all. It is certainly not a "speed thing" I do not go out and actively look to cross open water.
