Default Lake Cumberland

I know I've got a few days but we are trying to make plans for our annual trip. Is anyone interested in joining us for a weekend of houseboating, poker running and partying on the weekend after Labor Day?

I definitely will be there, I have a house in burnside thinking about renting a houseboat for that weekend though....Were you thinking of getting one to just keep at the dock or actually tie up in a cove? Last year I got one and just left it at the dock and it was one hell of a time...

Lake Cumberland is our home dock. We have a friend there with a houseboat that we stay with often but we are thinking about renting one with some other friends. I would like to tie out for 3 or 4 nights then come in to the dock for friday and saturday night.

Well hi stranger.
The run is Sept. 6th. There is a good party on the dock both Fri and Sat. nights but being a "dry" county we MUST stay on the dock. I had two friends picked up for dui last year, one on a moped and the other on a pontoon inside the marina. It may sound bad but there are allowing us to have a big party right in front of them so you just have to play by the rules.
Yes the lake is still down and will be for years to come but it has no affect on the run. I doubt you will find less than 75 ft of water anywhere on the run.
Let's get together and make another Thunder Run out of this.

Maybe for us, but no boat.

I don't recall seeing a single AT on the poker run last year.

Maybe I was going so fast you couldn't see me. We've done this run every year since about '99 and in a Thunder since '01. As I've said earlier in this thread we stay with friends there at State Dock and I tie at there boat not at the docks out front. If we get a group of us in this it will be no problem getting them all tied together.

Well dang it, I went through all my photos and didn't see you. I thought I snapped a pic of every boat as it came in for the first card stop. I've been infected with the AT bug since I joined OSO and have wanted to see one in person since. I

Edit- Ok. I just had to look harder. I would have remembered if I saw it at the dock during lunch.
