We will be at Brower with our typical party of people Wend. thru Sun.!

Why not Brower everyone? That is where it all started from and all the regulars from over ten years ago keep going. lots of hardware and a great layout for looking at the boats and catching up with everyone.Not to mention the end of the day at the main launch provides a big croud of people with a couple hours of entertainment.

Tinkerer 08-20-2010 10:39 PM

I will be there.

Good to hear! I was wondering if you were going to cumberland instead.

What day is the crew coming up? I will make sure my women is sporting her T in support of the Indiana Drinking Team :party-smiley-004: By the way... was it Absolute Mandrin you killed with red bull? I will have a bottle of your preference waiting for you:food-smiley-009:

Looking like Labor Day Weekend or Hot Boat will be my first run with the boat after scattering both motors there last year. I rebuilt everything in the driveline of the boat. It now looks like a show car. Especially the transom....The drives have 13 coats of clear, transom assemblies and boxes are powder coated and every nut bolt and trim line is mirror finish. Hope I didnt put a ring in upside down :eek: I was hoping to have it done months ago but it has been a very busy summer working on customers boats. Still boated every weekend so it didnt hurt to bad.

Brower Park http://www.mecostacountyparks.com/Brower.htm

It has kinda been the center of it all since the beginning. They have camping and a decent boat launch. Lots of parties going on all week at different camp sites, not to mention a ton of sweet rides to look at. They have two big coves you can beach your boat at and tie to a post. You can leave the boat in the water there or pull it and put it on your camp site.

There are three main places people go:
1. Brower Park - center of the river

2.The Sand Bar - up river a few miles - lots of boats hanging out and drag racing. Sometimes there is a radar gun out. Lots of drag style boats along with offshores.

3. Consumers Beach - down river a few miles - Sat. is a big raft off party with lots of BOOBIES. There are people hanging there all week. Inside the cove is pretty wild...just outside is a little more mellow but the party keeps growing that way.

I will post our camp site numbers during that week. Come find us and we can give you some hints about the river. Our parties are pretty easy to spot ;)

This thread has some more detailed info about boating on the Muskegon. If your boat is greater than 30' in length Brower park is about the only launch- although I have heard of others putting in at Oxbow. Hope to see everyone there!
