So what do the town fathers in Webster think about you doing speed

Well, considering that a couple of local ocean racers use that
particular pond for testing their 42 foot 1200 horsepower super
charged racing boats, not much. :)


Bozos. Next thing you know you'll have 5 mph Manatee zones.

What I want to know is how do you fit

"Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg"

on the transom of your boat?

I thought my mapping software was broken when I saw that.


That's where my parents honeymooned a few years back, I had to learn
to spell it once when I was young to get an ice cream cone from dad.
Apparently the indians were fighting over fishing rights in the lake
from both sides long ago and they made an agreement:
"You fish on your side, I fish on my side, no one fishes the middle".
That's what the indian name of the lake means, or so I was told. Looks
very nice, I have never been there.
