Only lakes close. Lake Billy Chinook used to have a Hot Boat crowd from Bend. Wikiup, Detroit and Prineville are all large lakes. Try to get ahold of the guys in Bend. Maybe a marina that has drag boat parts there. Been years since I lived in Oregon, but have been to all of the large lakes in Eastern Oregon. Good luck.

I am stuck on a job here in Springfield (Eugene). I have to say and sorry if I afend anyone around here but it is the worst weather I have ever been in (for spring- summer). Day in and day out it is dark - gray - rainy - and just plain gloomy. I cannot understand why anyone would want to be here. The temp seams to stay around 55 days and 40s nights. Boating ? everyone I have talked to says they have summer about 3 to 4 weeks end of July early August. I love the sun and it just doesn't comeout around here. I hve now found a place that has worse weather than home in upstste N.Y. I do hope it is better where you are going good luck. By the way the plain is cool.

this may just be a 1 time thing going ... i don't really know if i will like it there...the owner of lancair is a good friend from here who purchased the company in 03'.
this is the new model and will be the "demo" for customers to test out. he is 1 of a few who really knows how picky i am when it comes to doing paint work right.
i am locked into a a lease here until the end of august. so , i need to make some $$$ for right now...

Grew up in Portland until I moved to Michigan. Back There every couple of years. My brother flies over from Germany and the last trip spent a week fishing and skiing at Detroit Lake. The weather is much warmer and less rain in Redmond/Bend area than Portland. The best good offshore water is trailer up to Seattle and make the run to Victoria BC and then to the San Juans. Great times.
