The comment was in several web pages and it was very specific to Winnipesaukee.

A couple of the pages were from the Laconia Sun, which states as follows: Do not wash your boat in the lake — only at an approved wash station, or away from the lake. Use nontoxic, and chlorine- and phosphate-free cleaners.

So I am reading this as there is some "approved wash station" on Winnipesaukee, that you can wash you boat on the water.

Otherwise why would would they say "or away from the lake"

And again, if not on the Winnipesaukee at an approved wash station (in the water) why include the comment about "Use nontoxic, and chlorine- and phosphate-free cleaners"

This very confusing.

They make special boat wash specifically to be used while the boat is in the water, it is purposely engineered to be safe.

I feel certain I am either missing something (the most likely situation), or we are again facing zealots that are so extreme the only solution to meet their standards it to eradicate mankind.
