Winnipesaukee Not Frozen
 

Ok, I'm a bit crazy . . as a Winni boater for the past 50 plus years, . . . this lake is not yet fully frozen . . . and we just had snow . .and my Donzi Corsican is easily launched and ready to run . . . I have this thought . . go boating in January on Winni, it's never been done before!! Make history . . I've never done that!!

In recorded history the lake has never been open this early in a new year . . and we just got snow . . so the blue water with white shoreline just sounds like a photo opportunity, as long as it's not windy . . .

It's dangerous! water temps are in the thirties, there is no one close by for a rescue should anything go wrong, but if it's flat this is a unique opportunity . . . imagine running the Governors Island Bridge at 70 MPH . . . shooting the Weirs Channel at speed (actually been done in a Checkmate, "Black Magic" about 1973)

I need a helicopter . . . my life is worth too much ! My Mom is going to check out a few ramps this Friday . . Alton is frozen in . . .so public ramps are the only options . . .

Bundle up and do it! Let the local fire department know as they must have a rescue boat they cold launch in short notice!! Don't have to worry about marine patrol!! :drink:

I was just out ice fishing on weds, I say go for it.

The second you fire up the boat on the lake and go over 40 you'll still get a ticket from the noise patrol... :angry-smiley-038:

It's too bad to see what that lake has become. :(

NH Baja,

I'm also in Bedford! Where did you go ice fishing?

Piss people off by going below the speed limit by dropping your tabs and plowing a big wake.

I was at ninteen mile bay. There was eight inches of ice. I am going back on Sunday to catch the big one. The lake is frozen from the barbers pole north. Alton is frozen, center harbor, glendale and winter harbor. The rest is fair game

Do it! I bet you will find dock space at the Naswa...Cynthia may even be nice to you.

back in the day i would fire up both brigeports at the public docks at the weirs oh the looks i would get as the 2 stroke oil cloud would cover the beach god i miss those days:evilb:
