Get hold of Vagrant (Dave) he's on here every now and then. He lives there and bought our 42 Sonic a few years ago.

Oh yea.... When looking and thinking of the lake it is like a "Y" where you have two long fingers and like a tail.

Get some one to chim in when Poker Runs of America was here and how long it took them to do the lake. You won't be able to run 80 for very long. Of coarse - I don't know what its like to run 80 unless I am falling off a cliff, lol.

I come from boating in NE OH on inland lakes there and Erie. I don't find LKN that crowded or rough but others it is all they b*tch about.

Tons of bars and dinning on the lake. The Rudder, Vinnie's and Exit 36 are my favs.

I rack store in Denver at Westport. They can handle up to 29 - 30 and I highly recommend them if that is your route.

The NASCAR guys have some really nice hardware that float.

Of coarse there is a giant tie up place and a seperate cock tail cove. I don't frequent the tie up place which is called the Sand Bar often as it is in a wake zone (why the f they would put the place to be here I have no clue) as your boat can get thrashed by idiot with 3" fenders with an AL john boat and by people plowing water throwing large wakes. You could see some T & A here.

What is consider cock tail cove is cool as it is on hole 18 of one of nicest country clubs in Charlotte. No wake zone. The chances of seeing T & A here is lower.
