Where do you launch with the big boats, it will be our first time on the lake. I have a red IMO with 540 in it and friend has 38 PQ with 525s. Getting there Saturday morning sometime and still unsure where to launch

Here's a vid leaving the sandbar. Best 10 miles of the year! Was getting wet(yes I am a puss) while looking for the external mic so there's wind noise and mic rattle.

Made it down to Torch Sunday, 3rd time this year, had not been there for three years prior to this year. Had a great time each time with awesome weather! The only bright side of the 38 going down was the getting out with the dingy to the other lakes this summer!
