no speed limit huh? hmmmm.....

thanks for the welcome.

Yeah as far as i know only on the big lake and thats because its so crowded on weekends during the summer. I think with heavy boat traffic there should be a speed limit but it's a shame when it's 9am on a Wednesday or something like that. Winnisquam doesn't have any speed limits either, it's my lake of choice. The only really nice thing about Winnepesaukee besides the size of the lake is the fact that there are destinations, all the other lakes there aren't really places to go to from one point to another.

Welcome to the site!

I agree, but there was already a speed limit, no one followed it, they should just enforce the one they already had

[Highlife-e46]

The whole speedlimit thing to me is not a solution to the problems. The 2 incidences im familiar with that lead to the new speedlimits had more to do with alcohol then speed. As with anything though, the old farts that make the rules use whatever they can to pass anything they can to ruin our fun. ...i wonder if anyones running a radar detector on their boat yet lol

[rushguy]

doubt it, i've read the regs on them and the radar... they'd need a miracle to actually win in court for a speeding ticket

[CooperS7777]

They haven't even brought a speeding ticket on the lake to court yet to the best of my knowledge. I certainly don't worry about it when I'm out there.

[rushguy]

me neither. If/when i get one, i'll fight it rather than pay it.
