I don't undertstand how raising the speed limit to 55 on the Broads affects kids going to camp on Bear Island. With the 45 MPH daytime speed limit, there's obviously nothing to limit to on-water activities right now. If the speed limit gets raised in the Broads, nothing changes for Bear Island camps, it's still 45 MPH near the camps.

The central argument is speed limits vs no limits. Are you saying that if 55 in the broads passes you will then be perfectly happy with speed limits? |

I think 55 is a little slow for an area that's 15 square miles open water, but it's better than 45 and a step in the right direction. I was perfectly happy without daytime limits, but I think 45 around areas like Bear Island is reasonable and prudent.

Yesterday's April 20 Laconia Citizen, which is now only available to read when you buy it for 50-cents at a news stand and not on the internet anymore, had a headline article on the SB-27 hearing at the statehouse. The Concord Monitor, Laconia Daily Sun, and the Laconia Citizen all had news stories on it. The Union Leader, which is the biggest newspaper in the state, did not cover it.
The article in the Citizen suggests that the tide of legislative opinion in the 400-seat House of Representatives could be turning, and that it well could be that SB-27 will be voted NO by a majority of the state reps. Of the 80 different people who attended the hearing as visitors to the statehouse, which included "camp directors, the Loon Preservation Society, business owners, the N.H. Lakes Association, and regular voters": 73 signed the roll as being against SB-27, which raises the speed limit in the broads from 45-mph up to 55-mph, and only 7 were in favor. That's a ratio of ten to one! Could be that Gov Lynch and his veto stamp may not be needed? Time will tell?

The Republican State Representative D. J. Bettencourt, the House majority leader, has just put this thing to bed. He is against SB-27. This is what the Citizen article said: Boat speed limit supporters buoyed by hearing Posted: Tuesday, April 19, 2011 6:00 am Boat speed limit supporters buoyed by hearing By JOHN KOZIOL jkoziol@citizen.com citizen.com | 0 comments CONCORD — Based on his and others' testimony, including a number of Lakes Region lawmakers, Warren Hutchins is optimistic that a bill to raise the daytime speed limit in The Broads on Lake Winnipesaukee will not succeed. Senate Bill 27, which squeaked out of the Senate on a 13-11 vote, was the subject of four hours of hearings Tuesday before the House of Representative's Transportation Committee which will vote on the item sometime next month. In addition to what he said appeared to be the committee's receptivity to the pro-speed limits argument, Hutchins, who is a Laconia resident and a member of WinnFABS — the Winnipesaukee Family Alliance for Boating Safety — also has an e-mail pledge from state Rep. D.J. Bettencourt, the House Republican leader, to oppose SB27. SB27 represents a compromise presented by the Safe Boaters of New Hampshire, which has faced off against WinnFABS since 2006, that would have eliminated numeric speed limits on the Big Lake entirely, instead letting Marine Patrol officers determine whether a boat was traveling too fast for current conditions. Having prevailed in getting the Legislature in 2009 to adopt a 45-mile-per-hour daytime limit and 25 mph nighttime limit on Lake Winnipesaukee, WinnFABS and its supporters were upset when the N.H. General Court last year raised the nighttime limit to 30 mph. When SB27 was introduced earlier this year, WinnFABS lined up against it and later against the compromise proposed by SBONH that would raise the daytime limit to 50 mph, but only in The Broads. Last week, both WinnFABS and SBONH released studies that they said bolstered their respective positions. On Tuesday, Hutchins said he reiterated some of the points in his group's research which he noted found overwhelming support for speed limits on Lake Winnipesaukee. By his math, Hutchins thinks speed limit supporters outnumbered opponents by a factor of 10:1 on Tuesday, based on the number of people who noted their preference in writing to the committee; while in direct testimony, "and I try not to be prejudiced, but I believe it was close to 85 percent of speakers who wanted to leave the 45-25 as it is." Among the speakers on behalf of the speed limits were Jeff Thurston of Thurston Marine in Laconia, as well as state representatives Alida Millham, R-Gilford, chair of the Belknap County Delegation, as well as Peter Bolster, R-Alton; and Harry Accornero and Bob Luther, both of whom are Republicans from Laconia. Hutchins presented letters from both the Laconia City Council and the executive board of the Lakes Region Planning Commission supporting current speed limits. A member of the Laconia Planning Board, Hutchins also pointed out that, of the 1,500 approved residential units in Laconia, 85 percent are in The Weirs "and the reason for that is the lake." "We need buyers who want to come buy these properties," said Hutchins, and the buyers will come, he continued, if they know they will have safe access to the lake. Hutchins said he called members' attention to the fact that the transportation committee has no one from the Lakes Region serving on it and said the committee needs to question the credibility of those who come before it to speak on behalf of SB27. "I feel very confident" that SB27 will not get out of the committee to the full House, said Hutchins. "I felt that the committee members were paying attention and could discern credible evidence." He added that he was further encouraged by a reply he received to an e-mail he sent to Bettencourt. In his April 10 answer, a copy of which Hutchins provided to The Citizen, Bettencourt concedes that, while he previously opposed speed limits, that no is longer the case. "Since this issue directly affects an area outside of my district, I am going to be deferential to those voices who experience and live with this issue everyday. Therefore, it is my intention to oppose Senate Bill 27." Bettencourt said feedback "indicates the limits have been a success and that the lake has not lost its fun or enjoyment. It is also clear that the speed limits have not stopped ANYONE from boating. In fact, they have instilled and reinforced a sense of proper behavior on our state's most important and well-known waterway." |

If SB-27 does not pass, does WinnFlabs think the issue will be dead?
Also, in the article posted by Rusty he fails to point out that some legislators testified in support of the bill. I've gone to about 10 public hearings combined between Concord and Disgusta. If anyone thinks the sign-in log is the tell-tale of the constituency then we're all in trouble. We really don't know how this vote is going to go and for Hutchins to say otherwise is an optimistic WAG. I think it's a huge political mistake for WinnFlabs to oppose SB-27. Kinda like taking points off the board after kicking a FG to try for a TD and then fumbling the next snap. The claims made by WinnFlabs are just over the top absurd. Unfortunately the boating community is a relatively small percentage so you'll have people who know nothing about boating chiming in. You can tell by reading some of the comments. This is something WinnFlabs gets a tactical advantage and they don't have to even work to gain it. According to WinnFlabs, prior to the speed limit everyone was driving around at WOT and people were staying off the water because of speeding boats. Now it's all song birds and canoes. Of course we all know that's not the truth. I can respect people's opinion but the exaggerations and distortion added to statements used by BI, APS and others is where they lose credibility IMO. You'd think I've never driven a boat on Winni and because they say something that it just "must be so." I can see with my own eyes thank you. In the end, WinnFlabs has not ONE piece of evidence that the SL improves safety for ANYONE. Will be an interesting vote nonetheless. |

You know what’s funny psycho? SB-27 was originated by a young immature dreamer, and when he said at the meeting; "I just saw it as not only crushing my dream, but crushing the dreams of other kids growing up”, that pretty much summed it up for why this bill was originated (and why it will be defeated). His need and dreams for speed was the only thing behind this bill and all his followers drank the Kool Aid. He bought himself a “Thunder Boat” and come hell or high water he is going to see how fast he can go and everyone else better get out of his way. That is immature in my book.

I consider Scott to be a friend. I have worked with him on other legislation. He believes in what he is fighting for, and he is doing it in an honorable way. I also think the compromise he wants for the broads is reasonable.
It is unfortunate that a great many responsible boaters have been inconvenienced by speed limits on Winni. I wish there were a way to allow responsible performance boaters to continue to use they lake in the way they once did. However there is an old saying that you can't make an omelet, without breaking eggs. At the end of the day, I support speed limits and he does not. |

Many of these boats were lawfully purchased at NH boat dealers. They don't pose anywhere near the threat that they've been portrayed to do. If you want to ride slow in your boat then do so. There is so much water on the lake that there's room for everyone to operate. It's worked for a long time that way on the lake. The speed limit is propagated by a very narrow minded group. They've lost objectivity. The SL does nothing for safety and is why WinnFlabs has to repeatedly resort to embellishments of claims. Again, we don't know how the vote will go. You and I can guess but weird stuff happens when votes get to the floor. I hope it passes. If not, I suspect we'll go through it all over again. What we need is the "right" person to get cited for a speedking violation It's not the slam dunk that traffic tickets are and could easily be contested. |

Since he could care less about those from out of town let him tell you. It was already revealed (I think in this thread actually). We'll see if he is willing to put his money where his mouth is.

Second, be careful about painting with a broad brush as some of us have some pretty deep NH ties. Last time I checked my boat also has a NH registration which means my boat is slipped and stored in NH. So try as you might, I have a vested interest in NH boating. Surprise, suprise |

I'm not fascinated by who you are, I'm just commenting on Dhuberty24 questions.
It is interesting that you either are "that" Rusty and willing to risk all you built just to bust balls on this forum. Or, you are not "that" Rusty but are willing to let others think you are, I guess to trade on his name. Either choice is sad. |

You know ......there's a lakes region tow truck business with some huge, gigundic tow trucks, and they all say Rusty's all over every truck! So, most likely, after conducting a serious investigation here, it has been determined that the RUSTY here in this thread is that guy who drives the great big tow truck! That's a no-brainer.....come on....this here is that RUSTY guy with the great big tow truck!

As a little boy it was my dream (and I’m sure other little boys dreams) to own an automobile that is luxurious and perfectly balanced with a combination of high-powered performance and sleek, racy design.
Well I finally found it with the Uber-Luxury, $1.4M Bugatti. It is one of the world's fastest cars with a 1000+ horsepower engine fed by four bi-turbochargers. The car can go zero to 60 miles per hour in 2.5 seconds! That being said I am going to get a petition going that will remove all speed limits on NH highways. We all know that it isn’t speed that kills, it is due to the lack of driver education and alcohol. Simply put: “too many boneheads on the highway”. Below is a picture of the car that I might buy if I can get the speed limits removed from our highways: |

Taking the speed limit off interstates would not necessarilly mean an increase in accidents and deaths. Search autobahn.
Since we are setting up strawmen, how about we set speed limits to 45 day and 30 nights on every road in the state? That way people can buzz by the school at the same speed as on route 93? Or even more reflective, have no speed limit on any other road in the state, but have a 45 mph limit on the single biggest, widest, most open road in the state. |

There are civil engineering DESIGN CRITERIA involved with roads. We've already discussed this before. Speed limits on roads are based on ENGINEERING DATA. The site lines on Winnipesaukee are huge. The seperation of boats is huge compared to the interstate and the speeds are not comparable. Do you have 150 ft rule on I-93? You're barking up the wrong tree. If you want to now use interstate traffic standards then you better start coughing up data and we know the pro-SL crowd doesn't have any to present. Apples and oranges. Also you take issue with OCD wanting to have a boat that only until the SL came along was a perfectly legal hobby. So what is it that you like to do as I am sure we can pick apart whatever interests you may have |

I agree with you. As I said in my earlier post "I’ll compromise with you as long as I can get the speed limit removed from the interstates". There are civil engineering DESIGN CRITERIA involved with interstate highways that will allow for fast speeds. Also as we all know there hasn't been any engineering studies done on lakes to allow the Go Fast Be Loud (GFBL) boats to go at full throttle like autos can on interstate highways. So what do you say? Can I go ahead with the petition? |

Rusty, take a boat at 50 MPH and then shut off the throttle. Notice how quickly the boat stops? With no brakes even! We already have the data that shows no accidents at or above the current speed limits after literally decades of of being that way. Nothing like emperical data to squash pointless blather.... |

Now as Lawn Psycho has yet again gone over the line, and you are just playing, I will once again try to stay out of this arguement. Never have and never will own a boat that can break 45 mph. So why do keep jumping back in? |

psycho has gone over the line too many times to suit me also. By reading some of his comments I think the people who live on Bear Island have something to be concerned about. |

If I want to circle Bear Island you can bet your butt I'll do it. You tell me what part of driving my boat around Bear Island would be illegal? Please enlighten me jrc. I'll all ears. Over the line is calling someone's passion out as some sinister behavior. Owning a performance boat is not illegal but Rusty wants to believe a speed limit with make the disappear from the lake. It's perfectly legal to own and register boats. Rusty's own words PROVE that he is specifically target certain boats. That's over the line. I want to know what hobbies Rusty partakes in so we can critizize his activities. I could give a rats @$$ if you "think" something is out of line. Rusty wants to poke people in the eye by making fun of them and I was returning in kind. Deal with it. |

Regarding you last sentence, you tell me PRECISELY what I have posted that is illegal? If not I think you have libeled me should retract that sentence. I'm not kidding. Being an adult you know full well the difference between banter and a threat. Man up and apologize as calling me a threat and reason for anyone to be concerned is going WAAAAY to far. |

If you can't pick out the difference between humor and reality than maybe you should find some self-help books before the stores close tonight. You can act like a child by only using part of my user name which is fine but in the context in which you are using it I consider you to be an a__ Any day you feel you can take me on in a public debate in front of an audience regarding rafting or the speed limit just name the time and place and I'll be there. So tell me what your hobbies are so we can ridicule you? I'll show you how easy it is to pick apart just about anything people do. The only reason I reply in this forum is to make sure the "other side" is heard. Politics and perception is why a SL is in place. Your ideals of safety still allude you. Just want to remind you of the real world.... I just bit off the head of a chocolate bunny! Better go round up the bunny police |
