Thanks to this discussion (and a check of my chart), I see that the BP NWZ area has always been in easy reach of my neighbors and me.
If the new NWZ moves "hurried boaters" to the other side of Little Bear Island, a very large area west of Tuftonboro Neck will allow peaceful boating for everyone.

Some individual or group could get mud on their faces. Cue a famous Edmund Burke quotation here:

1) Read the letters: some writer's families have been there since the mid-1800s.
2) We forget that renters are supporting a local economy, while
miles of Lake Winnipesaukee have huge McMansions that are empty.
3) What happened to "This Lake is for Everybody".
BTW: One of those letters includes
somebody—in opposition—whose nearby island includes a NWZ.

Yup... C'mon over—tie up to my dock...
Just be sure that your boat size is greater than the wakes' crests, so it won't hit bottom while we're working out the details of your petition.
