Outside of a crazy busy day, or foul weather, you'd be fine crossing them in a 19ft boat.
From Moultonborough to Meredith, you pretty much avoid them. To the Weirs and other spots southeast, not so much.

We took a ride one sunny fall day from Ctr Harbor to Wolfboro in our 22 ft bowrider. Water was calm all the way as we went under the Long Island bridge and past the Barbers pole. Once we hit the broads there were (literally) 4 foot swells coming from all sides. its hard to imagine that certain parts of the lake can be so calm and other parts like an ocean.
