Nice. I think we need to check it out if it is powerboat friendly. Possible CPC headquarters.

Nah, Its right off at 136th and Torrence. They are putting up a big concrete storage building, gonna be selling boat "condos", putting in a swimming pool, etc. I guess last summer they had some ametuer fights there, bands, beanbag contests, etc.
How crappy of a ride is it up the river to the lake?

6 miles of no wake zone?? You tell us. Everytime I've done it, we were on plane all the way to the locks, running 70-80 all the way. But, we were fortunate to do it on days that the water pigs were not there clocking. I know many guys that got some major tickets running through there on plane.
I could'nt handle running that far at idle.
