Like someone said its on the canadian side of grindstone. Right by Leek island.
There will be alot of boats there that whole weekend. So, follow someone else in or study your charts. Right around that area there are alot of shoals.

I haven't seen the official route yet, but if I had to guess, I would say it will be pretty close to this, the only section I'm not sure of, is how we get from the 40 acres into the Canadian Channel near Gananoque, there are a couple of options and we have used them both in the past couple of years.
Kingston through the 40 acres, then down the Canadian side to Rockport, then through the mid channel to Cross Over Island, then Canadian Channel to to Brockville for lunch.
Brockville to Prescott down the Canadian Channel.
Prescott to Kingston same route back.

Get the Molson's on ice and the blenders ready!
Three days from now we will be launching in ABay and headed your way!
Boxy (aka Bluellama) + the NJ Typhoonians + 1000 Islands =
many memorable (some forgotten) times!

There is a public ramp in the state park. I don't know what it is called but it has a small marina, large campgrounds and they have plenty of overnight/weekend parking for trailers.
