FYI, your quoted "Ramsey Tidwell" did a cut-and-paste of
Woodsy's winni.com post from three years ago!
Tidwell, (
an alias of old) is presently spamming out-of-state boating websites to overthrow deliberations by New Hampshire's Legislature.

(One of the above links proposes a new law on Long Lake against 500-HP boats.)

FYI, commercial production and retail sales began 100 years ago with
Klepper (often seen on Winnipesaukee), and 75 years ago with
Folbot. One of my
Folbot brochures shows an early
Folbot kayak cartopped on a 30's car having wooden spokes!
I keep two vintage
Folbots on Winnipesaukee, but don't use them for a reason that could change by this summer.

This kayak is ¼-mile away, and bears the worst possible combination of colors for visibility to over-powered boats.
Is there a danger to him (or her) that
I can't see?
