Then you woke up and realized it was only a dream that won't come true.

Re: Loto Vs The Great Lakes
 

Both are great, but for entirely different reasons, most of them have been covered. That being said, LOTO is THE place to be if you want a boat party that puts Havasu to shame, although LOTO is the dirtiest body of watre I've ever been in, very high fecal material count, when I was younger I couldn't swim in it without getting an ear infection every single trip.

Re: Loto Vs The Great Lakes
 

Yeah, I'd probably close my mouth in the water at LOTO, ESPECIALLY in party cove!

Re: Loto Vs The Great Lakes
 

Does LOTO get rough? Lots of big boats, but is there any real skill needed to run them fast, or is it just boat wakes?

The great Lakes can take a 40 foot what ever and make her feel real, small real fast!!

Re: Loto Vs The Great Lakes
 

I'm sure you didn''t mean it the way is sounds, but that is almost comical. Sure you can get up and down the lake with out killing your self, most times. but if you want to run any speeds on a weekend you will definately need some skills. LOTO is probably the most busy water way per spuare ft of water out there.At leat half of these are 40+ ft crusers running wide open. It is not a wide lake but does have rock walls on the sides, so all these large wakes come right back at you. We passed a 65 foot Sea Ray running at leat 30mph leaving at least a 5 ft wake.All this along with the other cruisers. Pretty rough even in a 42' cat.

Re: Loto Vs The Great Lakes
 

it doesn't take any skill to run that suv of yours does it? :D

the problem with LOTO is that the wakes just never go away, ever..... they bounce of the rock bluffs, the seawalls, other massive cruisers and then tear up my dock.... :rolleyes: so at its worse is it as rough as the great lakes can get at their worse? no way, we don't get weather related waves like you guys can, but it gets rough enough where you don't want any part of it sometimes...

Re: Loto Vs The Great Lakes
 

Not a problem in the MTI, but it will tear the bottom out of those Skaters and No Techs.

Re: Loto Vs The Great Lakes
 

Can't speak for LOTO( have never been there ) but up in the northeast part of Lake MI out of Charlevoix where I boat you can look down in the water and think you are looking at 5-8 feet of depth and then you look at your depth reading and it sez 15-20 feet, gorgeous waters! But, summer is short and the Lake MI water does induce shrinkage factor heavily! Wrink

Re: Loto Vs The Great Lakes
 

You get blasted from every which way.

That cruiser you passed a mile ago's
wake has just bouced off a seawall or
cliff, and will be slamming you in the
side anytime now :eek:

It's like driving around the inside of a washing machine
on "AGITATE" cycle.

Yes....skill is required.
