thinking about taking the pontoon out today

launched my 27 from Hemmingway sunday without issue......other then the wait.

Launched my 230 from Calville on Sunday. It’s got a big hump Before the water. But it’s steep. Trailer was barley in the water and the boat floated off trailer. Retrieving was tricky had to put the trailer all the way into the water to get the bow of the boat over the rubber roller.

During the week i think your fine as far as the wait goes. Dont know about length of boat. I waited 2 hours to get off the lake Sunday night.

we got right in the water... leaving was a little longer,..about 8 in front of me.... you would think people would get ready while sitting there,.. and have someone that can back a trailer...

Yeh. You would think. Zero common courtesy anymore

Launched a 30 Saturday pulled out Tuesday. People shouldn't be allowed to tie up on the ramp side of the dock. Makes it harder than it has to be.

I helped a few people Saturday that were alone. Everyone else just jeering and yelling. Sad boaters use to always be willing to help.

Lots of people in boats. Not many actual boaters around though.

Good on you to step up. Karma will get you for that!

@Runs2rch im always willing to help. The demographic this year sucks. In line a Calville everyone is just straight faceD no hi or offer to help. Hope it changes next year! Glad that all these new boaters will leave the lake here in a couple weeks so we can have it to our selves.

Pulled our 40 out today about 6:30am and barely got the back tires of the truck wet. While I was waiting for my dad to come around, I helped a guy trying to do his 255 solo. I actually had to get his truck deeper than we did with the bigger boat.

Long story short, the ramp there is no problem for bigger boats
