Marine Patrol
 

When does Marine Patrol come out on the lake?

They are out there. I saw them several times last weekend.

They started on the water training for new recruits right after ice out. And they responded to the plane crash back on April 22nd.

Saw them all over the place on the Gilford / Ellacoya side of the Broads this past weekend. Close to shore, in the middle, hanging around Welch...nice to see them out and about...

On Sunday...
 

As we came out of West Alton, there was one on a slow cruise heading toward Alton Bay. After a cruise over towards Wolfeboro, we heading down into Roberts Cove and then down to the town docks in Alton Bay. We saw the same MP heading out the bay around Echo Pt. We got takeout at Amilynne's and ate the wraps and sandwiches on the boat at the dock. Looked behind us, and the MP was back, with lights on, having stopped a pontoon boat. Not sure if it was a safety check or what, but the wind was a little strong and was blowing them in towards Gillan's at a pretty good clip. Finally, MP pulled next to the pontoon, and exchanged something, and they then separated.

MP then tied up to F&G dock at Downing's Landing. Seeing that, we quickly made our escape!:laugh:

Where is Amilynne's and where do you dock to get to it?

Amilynne's in Alton Bay
 

Amilynne's is on Rt. 11 in Alton Bay (across from the mini golf course). It's the former Busy Corner Store and has a variety of goods including a bakery and sandwich shop. They have a few tables for indoor eating as well. If you dock at the public docks in Alton Bay, Amilynne's is a short walk east just past the Pavilion and the Olde Bay Diner. It sits on the corner where Rt. 11 makes a sharp bend.
