I just can not understand why or how a small group of people who (as they say on their website) are scared of boating in crowds (reason=bc of other boats...  )decide how other people should go boating. Please lets have a contest and see who has better boating skills...I bet 100 to 1 that I'd smoke anyone of the WINNFAB crew. Have you ever pulled into Wolfboro docks and see the family pull out the "pole", husband yelling at wife, people on docks scrambling to help..HEEHEE...bet then can't navigate over 30mph with out wettin their pants  AND THEIR SCARED OF US!!!!!!!!!

You are about as wrong as you can be. Perhaps you have not considered that people afraid of boats don't live on islands. Or that when you live on an island your boating skills improve rapidly. I take a boat to get the morning paper. Islanders boat in all kinds of weather, including conditions where most boats don't leave the dock.
I'm not sure what your definition of "smoke" is. But if it involves boat handling expertise, I wouldn't bet against WinnFABS. You can be sure that family at the Wolfeboro docks did not come from an island.
Every WinnFABS person I know has at least one boat capable of going well over the proposed limit. So do I.
Sorry if this ruins your stereotyped image.
