Maybe everyone's piling dock shakes from wakes, IDK.

On calm days, friends on the other side of Wolfeboro Neck (Broads-side) have to put up with breathing difficulties, so I guess we're luckier in that "environmental-hazard" aspect.

In Florida, wake-disrupted & floating & rotting Turtle Grass has made people move away from affected oceanfront homes, so even ocean breezes don't bring in enough oxygen.

In Winter Harbor, my neighbors can't hear my radio; most weekends, neither can I.

MAXUM: "And you know this for a fact? You readily admit that is marker was placed “before your time” and “presumably” 30 years ago and even though at the time you didn’t witness where it was placed, or when exactly but for the purposes of making your claim you simply throw out arbitrary observation. It’s not in the least bit possible this was placed there instead we are to believe that two feet of shore has eroded?"
You may not like the conclusion because it is inconsistent with your agenda, MAXUM, but it is a fair conclusion based on the facts. Why would a surveyor who is marking the end of a property line place a marker two feet into the lake, which is otherwise public space? The marker is also consistent with the otherwise available plots of the property.
We don't have a survey marker in the water, but if you look downward next to it, you can see the lake through tree roots. (And the marker is a good eight feet from our shoreline's rocks).

You have a point, although their defense was "We are passing by very fast, so the noise doesn't stay around". Today, objectionable noise is amplified electronically, rather than having gamed NH's noise RSA with the recent "Trojan Horse Law". (Absent enforcement).

At least Wakeboarders and Wake-Surfers haven't killed anyone. (Although they've come close — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KQQOBLbqPA )
