Except of course . . . as usual . . . that's NOT what he ACTUALLY said, is it?
"Speaking on WGIR, Lynch said he doesn't think overall boat speeds are the most egregious problem on Lake Winnipesaukee. He said there are other problems, such as boats going too fast while too close to other boats or to shore.
He said he would consider the proposed limit if it gets to his desk."
"Not the most egregious problem" is not at all the same as "Not necessary".
He was in fact quite correct. Boat speed is not the most egregious problem on the lake. However a speed limit changes the lake in a lot more ways than just slowing boats down.
