The ultimate rock marker: Laconia Daily Sun, April 6, 2016 says in a brief article with a photo that local airplane pilot Bill Hemmel reports that Nipple Rock looks like it has been painted with a coat of bright new paint.

Nipple Rock has Flasher Buoy 46 atop it, plus is painted with red and white paint over the last sixty years.

Nipple Rock is looking for a secret volunteer artist to maintain and carry forward the sixty year long tradition of painting it with red and white paint.

Anyone know, was April 2016 the last time it got freshened up with new paint?
