Why? Because there is a law that states how fast anyone can go on Lake Winnipesaukee.
That’s the reason I care and you should too.


270-D:2 General Rules for Vessels Operating on Water. –
Paragraph X. (b) (1) (2) As shown below:

(b) Where no hazard exists that requires lower speed for compliance with subparagraph (a), the speed of any vessel in excess of the limit specified in this subparagraph shall be prima facie evidence that the speed is not reasonable or prudent and that it is unlawful:
(1) 30 miles per hour during the period from 1/2 hour after sunset to 1/2 hour before sunrise; and
(2) 45 miles per hour at any other time.
