Where do you boat?
After reading this board for a while, I have now decided that my puny little lake up north is nowhere near the top 25 most fun places to boat. The amount of nice 'go fast' boats and the amount of partying seem to be a microcosm of what is happening at your lakes/rivers/oceans...
So i was wondering...:
a) are there any others that boat here in Minnesota... especially on Lake Minnetonka?
b) if not, tell me about your lake or body of water... give me some details about events, party spots, what-have-you... post some pics too.
Thanks

Gulf of Mexico/Intracoastal between St. Pete/ Tampa down to Sanibel Island/Ft. Myers area, Charlotte Harbor etc.
Whatever you are looking for, you'll find it in this area.
OPBA (Offshore PowerBoat Association) is a great "offshore" club based out of St. Pete.

I to live in Minnesota but I boat on the St. Croix River and the Mississippi. You should give it a try, a hell of a lot better place to run. Plus there's not a 45 mph speed limit!!
