It is QUITE disconcerting to me that MP is slow to react to such obvious hazards when we rely so heavily upon the accurate charting of the Lake (Kudo's Bizer).

At this point, I rarely need to dig out my chart EXCEPT when boating up in Moultonborough FL#12 and beyond .... when it becomes a fixture in the gunwale at my side.

Totally agree that ever since State Police took over operations servicing boaters (not patrolling) has been severely impacted.

I could NOT BELIEVE that in States wisdom when building this multi million dollar (well needed) facility that they determined that it doesn't need a dispatch center, if for nothing else to monitor and be responsive to VHF Ch 16 calls ...................... this part I truly miss
