Justin - is Schute's Branch ok for long trailers? First time at OH with this new boat - my trailer is right at 49 feet (drive guard). Seems like I'm pushing mud and/or rocks everywhere we go.

We will post launch ramp recommendations and truck and trailer parking within the next couple weeks.

Terry - yes, this is where we launch the Skater which is ~60' with the same drive guards. Its a good ramp. Couple of windy roads but its where you want to launch.

Does anyone have a schedule of events for this yet? Never saw an email or anything on it. Maybe it's coming??? Or do we have to retrieve it from somewhere?

Here you go....

also this info.....
ATTENTION NASHVILLE POWERBOATERS!

I have spoken to the owner of Cedar Creek Marina up near Mt. Juliet and he is willing to truck in non-ethanol 93 Octane from Atlanta Ga if we are willing to purchase it!
>>>THIS IS THE ONLY PLACE ON THE LAKE TO GET 93 OCTANE FUEL<<<

We will be getting the first load for the Fun Run in late July. I know that I need it and I am asking who would also use it other than me?

Thanks Terry.

Any raft ups for Thursday afternoon like in the past? Last year was in the cove just across from the marina, somewhat small and for the early arrivals.

Jim,

Unfortunately I am pulling the engine. Something happened to it last weekend so I'm piloting a friends Scarab CC instead.

Trust me, I wish the Cig was coming too.
