It was floating in the middle of heavy boat traffic lane in the middle of Moultonborough Bay North of Black Island.
But get this! Laying on the paddle board and inflatable were two college age girls sunbathing! No I think they were sound asleep. We turned around and approached them slowly. As we got right next to them we actually startled them. They had not even heard us approaching within 10 feet.
And besides....NO PFD! They didn't even have a PFD on or with them. We told them that we could not see them. And it was very dangerous being out this far and right in the middle of heavy boat traffic. They said thanks for letting us know and off they went.
Wow.....Now after thirty-five years boating on this lake, I think I have seen everything.
