Default Mp

The lake generates a great deal of income for the state with hotel taxes and other related tourism fees not to mention the thousands of boats that are registered on the lake each year. It seems unreasonable that the state then isen't in a position to properly staff the MP on this lake or other lakes during the short season we have.
The USCGA are nice people , well trained I an sure , but not an appropriate substitute for state employees with proper police authority.

If New Hampshire doesn't want to handle the lake with the proper staffing then perhaps its time to call in the ( real ) Coast Guard . Having a group of unpaid citizen volunteers in private boats running around in uniforms will turn this into a Mel Brooks movie .
