Get yourself a drysuit and you can board anytime you like, only when the water freezes swap for the snow board.

Where in Maine? On the weekends I usually ride up near Lewiston. As for the winter, snowboard. I would keep going until you can't stand the cold anymore, but it's going to be getting cold quick.

They got gators, but they won't bother you, most of the often-used lakes have the gator population taken down to nothing, just don't go to lake Jessup, I've seen 14 foot gators sailing there (Me, not the gators)

I recommend lake Fairview, It's a nice lake, pretty clear and big enough to have fun in, and I doubt you'd even need a drysuit until november, and that's if you have a low cold tolerance.

And did you censor poop?

Dont fall in if your worryd about the alligator thing! just jump in with your board on with the rope... and go... and truthfully most gators dont attack people on the top of the water in the middle! And dont panic if you see a gator.. cause they sense fear! If you fall... aproch the situation with little fear... and that might piss the alligator off and make if leave you alone.. what you gota worry about is alligators attackin in packs.. then most likly your friends driving the boat will leave you there and run for there lives.. cause they get agressive even towards boats! If a alligator bites you.. you ned to somehow turn around and prob its poop shoot! Thatll turn the gator off! Just remember... the Hurrican is messing around with the Preditorial animals food chain.. so they might be a lil fisty. but all in all have a good time. and if you see suzen the 15 ft alligator missing an eye... give my regards!
