OK. I've seen your boat at dock, guess we've never met. Reason I asked, I'm rebuilding the drive for a the yellow 22 that's just south of you.

That yellow one is about half way down to Fishers I believe, just south of Elizabeth Is., nice boat, early 2000s I think. Wonder why it needs the drive rebuilt?

Must have had water in it at one time and looks to be run hard oil severely burn. Gears pitted and bearing warn. Not working at marina or other shop anymore gone back into retirement mode, life flying by to fast. I still do his drive work at my house and go over there for specialized jobs. But not to often. Got a new boat this fall so will be out on lake a lot more this summer. Sold the Powerplay last winter and was boatless last summer. Took me over a year to find something I liked. Landed up with a 27 Fountain

Single or twins in your new fountain? Where did the old Powerplay go?

Any photos of the lake frozen over? We brought our 26' Scarab up for a couple visits a few years ago and stayed at Bonnie View. We are thinking of bringing our 353 Fastech up this summer...is this realistic or just too big? And if ok, where can we stay that will accommodate the size of our boat...also where can we launch it?

thanks for any insight...

The town ramp is beautiful. You could launch anything there. Also Norwall and Fischers on the east. There are a few places for overnights with room for the boat. Maybe Ricky can help out with names

Bad monkey. 35 is a perfect size, water gets very sloppy on weekends from boat traffic, and if there's any wind you'll be glad you got the extra leight. Like Claas6 said new ramp at Million Dollar beach is excellent, I have used it many times to launch my 33 Powerplay. Only problem with ramp at Million Dollar beach there are only 25 spots for truck and trailer parking,if lot is full you can still launch boat, just can't leave truck and trailer. Best part it's only $10 to launch and park. If decide to use that ramp and trailer lot is full get a hold of me and you can dump trailer at my house and take truck,back and park it without trailer, I live within two miles of ramp and have plenty of room for trailers. Fischer's ramp is closed on weekends & Holidays. Treasure Cove is about three or four miles north of village on the 9N ( the Bolton-LG side on lake). The owner John has a ramp and parking, when they use to have Poker Run up here lot of the guys stayed there and where happy. There are many motels with docks, so if you something and they don't have room for trailers your welcome to leave it here while on vacation. Any questions about the lake PM me and I'll give you my cell number.
