![]() 1) Tuesday, a rental boat pulled up next door. It had five men aboard—all in "Island Maintenance" tee-shirts. Wouldn't "in-water training" pose a costly and unnecessary impediment to Winnipesaukee's maintenance businesses? ![]() (Especially as more than one member of an "Island Maintenance" boating crew should be tested and qualified). ![]() 2) When just one day of renting is very costly, does no renter get a "free pass" in such changeable weather as we have here? ![]() Quote:

We need to be serious about certifications—the U.S. model of today has proven inadequate—IMO.
