Season pass is 250.00, parking sux & too many weekend boaters. I launch my 38 there, but come early and leave early. He charges 20 or 25 dollars to overnight on that concrete wall.

I talked to Frankie at Cambridge, and asked him if we could turn the course around so I could run from the other end. That way I could get on plane and run all the way down make a pass , all at the same time. Got to save fuel now, Im on a fixed income. Good news John.....Frankie said they were thinking about paying 3 positions. At least you will get some gas money back.

If they are paying per position, Susan and I are Grand Champions after Sat. night at Cambridge.
