mid july water temp is usally half way bareable if its calm and there is sand bars to anchore on and wade up to shore but we will be at the mercy of the waves.

Thanks for everyone input. Keep it coming. I know Eric has been working on a couple things, and one of us will post the results.

Progress update: I have tenatively arranged for a dinner at Dockers in Muskegon for Friday night July 22. If that is OK with everyone I would like a head count of who plans on being with us for dinner on Friday. I am still working on a lunch stop for Saturday, have made a few calls to some spots in Saugatuck, looks like it may be tough to secure a spot for a big group. If I cant secure anything does anyone have an alternative, or idea on where we could go? Feel free to PM me with RSVP or any info, or give me a call (989)450-4256.

boatwerks on lake macatawa in holland or maybe crosswinds on white lake

I will plan to be there for Friday evening. MIKE

Yes, I'm in for Friday.

Eric, i am for friday

I will be there Friday.

Ok, I need some local info. After several calls, it seems that no one in Saugatuck is willing to guarantee us dock space for lunch. Suggested we raft of in the river and wade or dingy in, is that a viable option? Sounds like a pain to me, and I am sure none of us is packing a dingy around lol. I checked out Boatwerks website, looks like a nice place, anyone been there?

Yes, I've been there. Nice place, fancy upscale Holland. But may want to call about the dockage. Looks big in the pic but it was tight getting a 38 an a 42 docked on the east side. Not sure if the rest of the wall is suitable.


I know it's still on Muskegon Lake as is Dockers, but for a crowd the Shoreline Inn might be the ticket. It's a Marina, out door restaurant, hotel. Mr. Rooks owns it. He's a go fast boater, has a 50 Hustler at the Wharf,,,think he owns the wharf property to.

Only problem is we haven't gone anywhere.

How about Milwaukee? I think it's 83 miles.
