thanks I really did not know but then I only follow the big 10
every area has it good and bad, each time I think about leaving the great lakes I can't think what would be better.
1. The southeast has it weather problems, lots of hurricanes and those manatee zones, seem like people are either boarding up their homes or pizzing about the manatees, or . noise zones. Plus bugs out the wazzo, and salt water not the greatest to boat in.
2. Then you got the OK/TX area, sorry but those lakes are a lot smaller and they get the twisters and the downpours. Also more bugs out the wazoo
3. LOTO and most of the lakes in the southwest and southeast are so much smaller that you can even get swamped in a 30' offshore, and of course lots of problems if you are a bit on the noisy side.
4. Northeast lakes lots of tree huggers speed limits and noise and lots of restrictions, even shorter season than most of the great lakes.
5. Northeast coast, salt water, congested harbors, hard to find places to pull in, tides to deal with so you have to plan around that, and their boating season is about the same as the great lakes
MI/OH Lots of water very little speed or noise restrictions, fresh water and most of it pretty clean enough to drink, tons of shore line, picturesque towns from party islands to quaint towns. Lots of places for overnight docking, beautiful marinas, lots of parks and festivals. Ian and I could tow our boat and then travel to a town on any of the three great lakes near us without hitting the same place for 10 years. Oh well just guess I am happy where we live

Maybe they can leave that road racing course under the bridge.
I was wondering if that thing would be ever finshed. Hope there are no big Ohio earthquakes,That thing looks like it would tip over.
