Not everyone.

Residences are still being built and sold on Winnipesaukee with high expectations: Sailboats are featured on those brochures.

Long-time residents—even those who remember 100 octane sold at the dock—are fully invested in returning sane boating and relative quietude to Lake Winnipesaukee: the two are linked and go together.

(Or "are gone" together).

Geez...How many of Ted Kennedy's speeches begin with "Americans have to learn...?

Why can't people just do what they want?

1) You missed a formal NH poll taken two years ago.

2) If you don't believe that "regular people" want sanity on the lake, ask around the lake—especially where medium-sized powerboats are parked in residents' yards. A lot can be learned at yard sales if you inquire as I have done.

3) Funny that I should have just left a thread that used the term "bully" (twice).

4) Greyhounds weren't designed to mix with the flock.

Opponents have offshore options where you can boat safely and where fatalities are a part of everyday life: "Inland-waters" residents have no such option.

5) Opponents don't want ME "butting-in" at the Opposer's thread!
