I didn't do it to be mean.
I just keep track of old school mates and what they are currently up to.

Is a joke. It doesn't cover the area that is/was the identified "problem". The 40 footers come out of Fay's....and get on plane at the no wake marker. They drive by south of Locke's putting up 5 footers that roll into Locke's and slam the exposed docks and boats.

One of the landowners was patrolling the new zone on her jetski telling everyone it is no wake at Pig Island.

Seems like poor use of "LAKELIFE" time if it is spent as auxiliary marine patrol. Lose your mind or change location? The only way to rectify the "problem" would have been to extend the the NWZ out to the red marker east of Glendale off Locke's. Then you would upset the sailboat and yacht owners in a hurry to get where they are going. Except for Moultonboro Bay everything is fairly easy access from Glendale. When a person is relaxing .... enjoying quality "LAKELIFE" time I'm not sure what's the rush?

We probably need a "LAKELIFE" manual, it would sell like hotcakes and everyone would know how to live their "best" lives at least while in NH.

Let's hope we don't get to this point!

The short version:
The Charlotte County Sheriff’s Office said that Fair confessed to firing the gun after he was arrested. Deputies said Fair referred to the shot as a ‘warning shot’ to scare the boaters into slowing down.

I think if I were in the NWZ and somebody fired at me, I'd be inclined to speed up and leave as fast as I could go, not slow down. Amusing that the driver said he had previously increased his speed to negotiate a turn in the canal. That makes no sense to me.

Anybody who fires a firearm be it warning or not because of a no wake discrepancy is obviously mentally unstable and few fries short of a happy meal!

He should be arrested for criminal endangerment immediately, placed in prison for a determined amount of time, all his firearms should be confiscated and he should never be allowed to own a firearm again!

Totally agree, Dan.

Road rage has increased over the years and now extending over to boating. Egad!!!

On two occasions I was tempted to throw my sub-sandwich, from Lakeside Deli, at boats that I had to avoid in NWZ's because they were on-plane and "appeared to not see me".

One was at the half-eaten point, and the other had 1/3 to go.

I suppose it would have been assault.

But you didn't? I wish I could see that. Maybe those potato shooter things?

“Assault with a breadly weapon” is the correct charge.
