Diversey Harbor Launch

Anyone with a bigger rig ever drop in here? Can I get a 40' Hustler in there (have drive guards). We are coming from the north side... looks like you get off at California, go down Diversey and take a right on Cannon. How do I get back on the highway going north?

Is the lot big enough for a large trailer and truck? I would hate to get there only to find out that I don't fit

I don't know alot about Diversy but 10X Frankie launches his 10 meter Fountain there all the time. Hammond and East Chicago have excellent launch ramps.

Re: Diversey Harbor Launch

yes, WitchCraft used to launch his 42 Sonic there. Not sure about directions but you are fine to launch there.

Re: Diversey Harbor Launch

Here's a picture of a top gun launching that I took a few years ago. Maybe this will give you some idea of what you are up against.

Re: Diversey Harbor Launch

Thanks! It looks a bit tight, but do-able. The pictures sure shows how low the water is!
