Default 1000 Islands or Lake Murray poker run??

I cant decide both about the same tow, I was at 1000 islands last year and it was great, but lake Murray seems to get some bad a$$ boats.

Border issues? The August Poker run does have border issues, it is based in Kingston.

The June Poker run is state side only, you will cross in Canadian waters, but you do not have to check in.

We boat 1000 islands all the time with no border issue, just don't drop anchor in Canadian water, or run with an open container on the Canadian side and no issues

Plus 8 hrs at the border if you have priors

All kidding aside, even a dwai will keep you out if Canada, there you woul be a felon. So even tho it is a traffic violation here, they consider you a felon trying to enter their country. I had a friend turned back once, and threatened.

I bet Alexandria bay is only 5.5 hrs from LI. And it's still USA
