I see compromise as the only way. A blanket 45 MPH speed limit I don't see sticking without an almost annual fight to repeal it. If it's repealed in the Broads the NHMP or the State of NH had better clearly define and mark the "legal" zones.

Warren Hutchins alludes to safety but doesn't offer any data showing that the SL improves safety. If they had even the slightest proof they would be jumping up and down on it.

I have a picture from last July in which I was taking my boat from Center Harbor all the way to Alton. Boat had just been emptied of cooler and everyhing on board as my wife was driving the truck around the lake. With just me on board I was able to go WOT. Awesome morning and lake was like glass. Fastest my boat has ever gone and was using GPS to measure.

Here's an image I shot. Can someone please tell me how "dangerous" this was (hint: sarcasm)?
