What a shame.......  after getting an early start, with  23 hours of a
"perfectly good day" still ahead of him,  this fellow's boat is shot out from
under him.  These power boaters are just plain rude.  :)

   If boat traffic is this congested at 1 am, what do you suppose it
is like at rush hour?

Indeed, Lake Winnipesaukee is a total zoo most of the time.

From: http://snipurl.com/1oyi8
"During the peak summer months (July-August) the lake is very busy with boat traffic on weekends. Even in calm weather the "boat chop" can create rough waters that are dangerous to boats under 20 feet. Weekdays are much quieter."
