You should be able to have a blast @ 50 The lakes are about 8-10 miles long connected thru a min. wake zone canel should help keep the pack together.

Barry,

Thats cool, just wanna keep y'all in sight, so I dont get lost before the no-wake zones:D Its actually running 54 untrimmed right now, last time out my wife was with me, and she dont mind speed, but doesnt like to get air, so I kept the motor down, and throttled thru that area by the inlet(yeah, where i broke down). I have a few tricks I could do to get a few more MPH out of it, but it ran so damn good Sunday that I am probably not going to touch it before the run:D

We will be running primarily in Lake Harris, Little Lake Harris and Eustis. There are other options like Lake Dora, but the canal is tight and Lake Griffin that is connected via a lock. Could make an interesting trip through the lock!!!! hummm...

Sounds good, as long as I can keep sight of the 2nd slowest boat I will be good:D I am used to running last.

I printed the map, and posted it next to my monitor on my desk to keep me motivated, Wife says she will let me know by this weekend if she will be along for the ride.

Jack. The lock sounds like fun. Haven't been thru it. There's alot of water to run in after the lock, right?

Sounds fun where is Lake Harris? How far of drive is it from Cape Coral?

How many boats are planning on going?

Thanks
Don

I would say about a 3 hour drive. Head north on I-75 or east over to hwy-27 then north. Lake Harris is up near Leesburg Florida.

Lake Harris is in lake county Leesburg,Tavares ,Eustis,Mt. Dora are all citys on the lakes. I would guess 200 miles north up 75.maybe 3.5 hrs
