Anyone in the region interested in helping organize a mid summer fun run from the Dover/Sandpoint area down the lake to Bayview?
I’m not sure what the local ordinances are but plan to start with law enforcement for variance’s if needed.

I thought the lakes in Idaho have a 50mph max speed limit? I was going to head to Couerdalene last summer and thought I read that.

As a local performance boat dealer in liberty lake, we would be interested in helping out! Our shop is Legend Performance Marine. We sell Hallett and Nordic powerboats

I’m still working on, this but the boat I’m bringing up isn’t going to be rigged in time for my usual July time frame so it looks like I’m boatless in Idaho this summer. The Bonner Cty sheriffs
marine division told me he would be unlikely to issue a speed limit exemption in areas of recreational boats but invited me to meet with him to discuss specifics, so still possibly doable. Maybe have to stick to a specific route?

Also waiting to hear back from the marina at Bayview about dock space. I remember them being kind of tight in room. It might be better to leave from Bayview and run north and into the river to Dover where there is a more open marina or even Willow Bay, which is super laid back. But it’s about 9 miles down river. Also I have a dock very close to Willow Bay but the wake boat traffic would make rafting a very bumpy affair.

Just saw this thread. We have land on Pend O'rielle (buddy has a house on Priest) and absolutely love it up there (in the summer
) Goal is to drag the cigarette up there to use at some point. There is a guy that has a lake front house across from Hope that has a nice Gladiator. Last time we were up he was GETTIN' it heading towards Sand Point. Didn't seem to much care about a speed limit
I believe he was from Washington full time. Good luck with putting this together, if it becomes "a thing" it would give us a good reason to drag up.
