DOWNSIZING LAKE BOATHOUSES

Darlene Forst, of the Department of Environmental Services, approaches a boathouse under construction in Meredith Bay last week. Forst, shoreline section supervisor within the Water Division of the Wetlands Bureau, was inspecting a number of recent boathouse approvals as well as locations where boathouses were denied. (PAULA TRACY/UNION LEADER)

Above, this boathouse in Wolfeboro meets the state's new 900-square-foot limit. Top, Mass. Gov. Mitt Romney's boathouse in Wolfeboro easily exceeds the rule. (PAULA TRACY/UNION LEADER)

Think smaller, NH says on boathouses
After more than a decade of approving large-scale, dug-in boathouses — mostly on Lake Winnipesaukee — the state recently closed the door on such construction, limiting the size of the structures to 900 square feet.

Is this what they call closing the barn door after the horse got away?
