First time to the Lake

For visitors from out of state you really need to get and read the NH boater's guide. Marine patrol is everywhere and you will get the flashing blue lights if you break the rules (150 ft from everything). NH has rules you will never have heard of or imagined. You need the chart even if you have GPS. Don't just follow the guy in front of you, he maybe as lost as you (that's how I lost my first prop on the lake years ago). The challenge of navigating the lake is half the fun.
