I kinda doubt it as you almost cant get a boat on the lake anymore unless you keep it at a marina. Lack of ramp access and trailer parking has forced me to make the switch to valet storage. And its not inexpensive!
So I personally dont see any possibility of houseboats or cabin cruisers inundating the lake but not stored at a marina, just so they can trailer to the lake to try to find a ramp and parking for a day or two so they can sleep on the lake while anchored. Makes no sense to me. Seems more like the fear of black rifles and big gulp soda sizes that is overtaking common sense across the country.
But thats my opinion and maybe worth about .0001% of the Winnipesaukee boating population.
