Buffalo is a great weekend and a super event! Its one of the best boating areas I've seen other than the islands!

We had a great time at Harborfest and it was a fun ride, something different. I hadn't traveled that far on the big lake since I was a kid!

The lake Ontario boat and float was also something new and a great time with a bunch of boats!

The Erie run got a little wild, both on and off the water!!! Thanks to Tim Sharkey for some of his kick @ss photography! We won't post any party pics but there were two crazy nights!

Hey guys..Do not own a place on the River at least at this time, but fell in love with the area after renting a house boat from Ed Huck in 1972 and have been coming back ever since. I sometimes keep my 32 Regal down on the river but when its not there I will trailer my 29 Powerquest and launch somewhere on the Canadian side. Been just about everywhere on the River.. and every few years take the seaway to the old port of Montreal. A lot of time in Abay at the Riveredge or at Franks place the Boardwalk. We boat all over but we seem to have a special connection to the River and its people. Thanks for starting the thread ..Mike

Welcome Mike! You make us a grand total of 4 now! Doesn't seem like much activity in here but come next summer I know I'll see LOTS of boaters up there.

i know it! i see so many people running around up there. though im certain most are not on OSO and its antics.. im basically going to stop at every place with an unused boat on the lift and start talking up the owners and guilt them into using their boats! there is a donzi 35 or 38 ZR that i have only seen leave its lift once. same with a red nortec cat with nxt's. imagine if we could get everyone to run the boats thet just occupy lifts all summer we could have hundreds of boats running!! im sure the OPP wouldnt like that though lol

Don't get me going about the OPP that why I start the boat and head toward and stay mostly in US waters .....I think I know the Donzt you are talking about ..At least the next owner will get a boat with low hours.. lol

So much harassment. Same with the park police stretch under the American bridge. Luckily we never see any police on Canadian side running back from potters or pincton
