Default Lake George

Shortly after Lake George enact their SL, property values have increased. When WinFabs found out they decided to increase the value of their property by doing the same. Funny thing, lake front property have increased every where so it was irrelevant. But it did not deter the Lake George SL supporters story. WinFabs was touting Lake George as an example until a boater decapitated himself when he was going to close to a swim raft with a dive board. He was under the SL but will be violating our 150 ft law. Someone with a big a$$ cruiser swamped a tour boat with his wake resulting in changing laws governing tour boats. I think the tour boat was overloaded.

The SL law did not remove the 'cowboy' atmosphere from Lake George. So Winfabs decided not to use Lake George as an example.
