Over at nearby Lakes Squam, Winnisquam and Newfound, the boat registration money was used to build three very nice state boat launch facilities complete with double ramps, docks, parking, and toilets, and all for no charge or free to use by the trailer-boaters. They are great state boat ramps and get quite a lot of use as would be expected.

Does Lake Winnipesaukee, the state's largest lake, have a similar state boat launch? No, it does not! In the past, the Ames Farm ramps were used like a state boat ramp and cost 20-dollars to park and launch-lood for all day, but Ames has been closed to public use over a local zoning issue.

Where could a good spot be for the state to put a Winnipesaukee state boat ramp that is similar to the other three? Probably, the only spot for it is at the Ellacoya RV campground because the state already owns the land and that spot is a beautifull undeveloped beach.......and no one wants a state boat ramp for a neighbor.....so where's could it be built.....probably no where....

Anyway......as long as the Republicans are in control at the NH state legislature......there's no way a new boat ramp will get built.....NO way!

Just say NO to a state sailing center.......no to a boat ramp.....no....no....no..... the Party of NO!
