It's been fixed—look again.



It's a little camera supported on a railing, and there was no way to get the perp to slow down.

The Marine Patrol certainly wasn't "on it".

I'll take this expert's view over yours any day:

But thanks for the 70-MPH opinion. There are brief segments in that latest "run" that suggest the Donzi is at 70-MPH (and "chine-walking").

That you intended harassment—along with Scott Verdonk of SBONH—
"Safe Boaters Of New Hampshire".

I'll give "Safe" Boaters this much credit: you sure put on a good race for the folks at Keewaydin Point. 'Disappointing that the race chose to hug the furthest shoreline, though I was pleased that the race had a clear winner.

How EMPTY was it?



Countered? I videotaped two RSA violations on one YouTube, and all the immature responses come out.



He made two runs at illegal speeds. I don't know where his "switchable-exhaust" went to—seems he'd made his "Captain's" choice already.

As for the "sandbox", we're permitted to flag posts that are:

I sent it in, but apparently there's no penalty noted for the play of borderline threatening-behavior. As a result, WPD has been notified.

Thanks for that. I'd intended this morning to take the debate of illegal speeds, noise, and lack of Marine Patrol enforcement to a forum that could use some new "blood".

(Figuratively speaking, of course).

And not burden Don's forum with high-speed "children at the helm"—while awaiting the next newspaper headlines.
