Swimmers in the Alton Bay / Merrymeeting River Channel

Did anyone else see the three-four children swimming with their 'pool noodles' just past the bridge leading from Parker's/ Gillan's slips under the bridge this afternoon? When we entered the Bay about 2 p.m. they were just floating in the channel just past the old Downing's gas dock. Another boater started yelling at them and I heard a voice from the town beach yelling at the boater! Guess you can't legislate stupid. (and I mean the parents here, as these kids did not even appear to be teenagers!)
