a couple of us are looking at putting a fun run together for smith mountain lake in va sometime late summer 2017.all boats welcome no matter their size.no entry fee no registration no poker run or race.it will be a gathering of cool boats for several stops including lunch and a tie up at the end.will be a meet and greet on a Friday and maybe a after dark party on Saturday night.nothing set in stone yet hoping to have full details in late winter after looking at other events so not to interfere with already planed events and need time to talk with all businesses that have showed interest in participating.we will also look into rentals for anyone coming from out of town looking for a place to stay anyone interested?....thanks in advance

I would be interested.

We would consider it....Never been to Smith Mountain lake....any idea how long of run you are thinking of having? The family fun run myself and Fatherb68 organize in NY on the Hudson is 125 miles total length.

I would defiantly go. Jeff wurl

great to hear theres interest.!bad monkey the length wouldn't be as long as your used to,i think the lake is around 30 miles long but we wouldn't go all the way to the upper end so im thinking by the time we go to 5-6 stops depending on how we number the stops and where they are on the lake maybe the length would be around 40-60 miles at the most.thanks to all of you for your responses.

Pending timing, we could be in. "drejustice" here on OSO always has a party on Labor Day Weekend at his island too.

actually we were thinking the weekend before labor day but nothing for sure yet

Sounds like a great time. We have heard nothing but great things about that lake.....Once you figure out all details we will schedule accordingly.

Thanks,

Chris

You may want to coordinate with the local powerboat group on the lake. I believe mwdill here on OSO is the President of the smlpba

We are up for this run as well. Please le me know a date and I will set the calendar.
