I'll probably be with Xcel (Tom) or on Buill's bopat. Worse comes to worse I'll drop Kryptonite in and give her a workout...
And water is water...river water, rain water....it's all WET!

Joey:

The bigger boats (35'+) usally launch from Port-o-Blarney off grass lake road. I know that there should be a 42' Fountian with triples there tomorrw, so I see no problem with a 38'.
Hope to see you there.

Joey,

Port O'Blarney is a bit shallow. Launch it at Ben Watt's Marina in Fox Lake. It is on the left side right as you come into town on Route 12. That is where I have launched for 12 years. Great ramp and parking etc. I am putting in at 9:30 am if you want to follow me to Electric Harbor. I've got a 24 Outlaw with the name "Doctor's Orders" on the transom.

My cell number is 847-902-9702

Dave
