So, it's reasonable to assume that GF-BLs from Mass would want to trailer on up to the no-speed limit, Winnipesaukee waters.
That is an unreasonable assumption! How about the fact that there is NO LAKE in MA that is the size of Winnipesaukee. They may not like Ocean boating, maybe they have family here, maybe they grew up boating on this lake, maybe that it is a quick drive and a large open body of water.

I for one, know that I do not enjoy the lakes of MA. They are too small and do not provide the entertainment ON THE WATER that Winni does.

Not to mention that I own property on the lake. However, are you inferring even further that because I do not support HB 162 and that I live and earn my money in MA, that I should not have the right to enjoy Winni?

Considering the property taxes that I pay, I would disagree.

Let's remember that this lake is no one group of people's property! No one owns the water. It is owned by the state of Nh and there for every American (and visitor's) use.

Just thought that I would clarify
