"What are we talking about here, recreational boating.

So your TOTAL enjoyment of your recreational boat
supersedes my ability to enjoy my home?

Lets see HOME>>>>BOAT //// FAMILY LIFE >>>> FUN PARTYING

Which should out way the other?????"

Well it depends on how you prioritize things. My boating is a way for me to blow off steam. To enjoy myself after a stressfull week of working from 6am to 2am each day. My family enjoys going out on the boat and having a good time, it is some of the best quality time that we spend together. Why is it that your house is more "valuable" then my boat? That is like saying your time is worth more then mine.... Always hated that.... Besides some of these boats cost more then yours and my house......

"I think this is the issue that really isn't appreciated for lack of better
term by OS's. Hell the issue and stress and the harassment had me so worked up that I ended up in the emergency room in Bridgton with chest pains.

How about the cost to me in medical bills. Now you might forward that I have otherissues that caused this hospital visit. I would forward that the noise and the Harassment stressed me out so much that I practically had a nervous breakdown.

SOME PEOPLE RESPOND TO NOISE DIFFERENTLY. NOISE EFFECTS
SOME PEPLE MORE THEN OTHERS. There do you understand now."

No I do not understand now. You youself said that there could be other heath issues that cause your chest pains..... You sound to be a bit of a dramma queen hear. How about me and all the hassles and money that I had to spend due to your organization? Do you take into account the effect that you have had on my life? NO YOU DO NOT. All you care about is your life and YOUR property. Well if you wanted ON GOLDEN POND then you moved to the wrong place. We all have complied with the law now you want to make the laws MORE strickt. Plus I have to question the sanity of some one that would even step foot into the Bridgton emergency center.

"You can forward all you like that your noise is not disruptive, it is and
it is to the extent I am forwarding. Why do you think I am spending the
time on this forum, I love Winne, great lake, but I other thing that I would rather be doing.

Your right my kids could not believe the noise that ONE SPEED put out.
You do hear them on the video, hey they are six years old.
So your pointing out that you share something in common with six year olds, no kidding.

What you don't hear on the video is what my kids also say when an OS goes by the house. "there go the BOZO boats" Of course they are responding to the impact that the boats have had on my life, they are my kids, they love me.

I am sure your kids love you and that is the best thing that a father can have. You and I also know that they got BOZO boats from you, and you made fun of me being like a 6 year old? Hey if your 6 year old thinks our boats are cool that is fine by me. He can not like them, also fine by me. I just hope that some day he will make up his own mind about the issue not the one sided story that he seems to be getting from you. I have always said that to be far right or far left is a very bad thing.

"As for the number of time OS boats go by my house on a weekend day,
how about thirty to forty times. I figure I have at least a combined hour or
noise from boats a day on a weekend day.

Personally the only thing I care about is my family and my health and the
integrity of my investment in my home.

If you buy a boat that can't be run legally deal with it. There is a reason it's not legal.I'm tired of being gentle on this issue. Obviously you don't believe that I have been impacted by the noise on the lake. And I am not a single voice here.

I have spoken to hundreds of residents that feel just as I do and at the same level. The laws have been on the books for years, nuf said.

One last thing, when a group online holds a forum were they malign and
threaten and plan ways to F#@$K with a regular decent fellow that is only being active in his community, then that forum is nothing more then a MOB.
A bunch of uncivilized lawbreaking jerks."

40 times in a day!!! COME ON!!! You are dreaming and exagerating. When I go out it is up the lake and down the lake as do most of the boats that you are complaining about. So you are saying that there are 20 of us going up and down the lake in a day. I am not trying to belittle what you seem to be going through, however I am saying that you are EXAGERATING to a vary large extent the problem. You CAN have a conversation with a person that is 3 feet away from you, but you say that you can not. 40 passes a day... Not on the bussiest of them. As for the people that threatened you, some did, some did not, and I disgree with the ones that did.

"Now in fairness OSO has some 22,000 members. I am not naming names,
you know who you are, I have the posts from OSO, your on the record.
Those same posts have been emailed to Maine IFW and the town of Naples
Select Board. The goings on, on OSO are wrong. The admins should
shut down a thread that exhibits the post that I have seen."

People will be people and as you see them attacking you, can't you see that what you are doing is attacking us?
