I hope some of the families that have been scared away find their way back.

And the lake will be safer, boats can not have an accident on Winnipesaukee, if they have moved to another lake.
I am having a hard time believing that you wrote this post- you truly are a piece of work. If your paramount reason for supporting this bill was to decrease traffic on the lake, you are more self-centered than I believed.

If you had stated that your central argument was safety, I would have given you a break even though I believe that virtually every safety issue on the lake could be solved by enforcing the EXISTING 150' rule.

I am still shaking my head and holding back on typing how I really feel!!
