Lake ice

Steve, if you need an older mallory diz for that 283, I'll put it aside for you, just post a ship to address, think of it as goodwill

Eric, that'd be cool! I havent gotten into the original diz yet. Being its a 68 vintage Pacer conversion, Im guessing it might need some attention.

I tried to email you thru your homepage, but it wouldnt work. I you want, drop a note to me at      kten72@yahoo.com .

Thanks again!

It's a Gantry type crane on rails with a cradle for picking a variety of boat types and rolling across the road from the upper to the lower chain.

What do they charge for that? And how backed up do they get? I think the locks was $7.00 round trip last year. It can hold about a dozen boats.

Steve, I'll pull it from the engine and put it aside for you. if you need anything else from the engine let me know. call me 877-369-6693to confirm...I wont toss it

Steve,

Looks like a mini reunion!

Steve,
I just took a look at the calender and I'll probably drive up on the 22nd and then drive home on the 26th.

Eagle River/Three Lakes map

Steve,
If you open up this link, you'll see the Eagle River area/chain-lakes. Panning south and east will get you to the Three Lakes area/chain-lakes.
One of Rand McNallys errors has always been the mislabeling of Laural lake and not labeling Medicine lake. Medicine lake is actually labled as Laurel and Laurel is actually the lake to the southeast of the island.

I'm on Medicine lake in the south bay next to Hwy. 32 (I also have lake frontage on Spirit lake too) The Tique would probably be in the lift (Medicine lake).

Charlie is on the north shore of Laurel and you certainly can't miss a big white boathouse.

Mark is across the lake in a bay to the southeast of Charlie. You would be able to spot his place by a MC in a lift (yes, a MC!!!) as well as a Whaler in the lift next to it.

Watercraft Sales (fuel) is in the south bay of Island lake.

A day trip over the dam to explore the chain fully would be fun. Try to plan on it. Oh, I found the current fee on the lift. $5.00 each way - I told you it's been years since I've been over it!!! When you get closer to the trip, I'll get you phone numbers and address's.

Mark,
You just have to rub it in! You lucky dog you.

Chris,
There are 6 chain-falls, tho I;m not quite sure how many are required for a good nites sleep... if thats what your after. Maybe a griphoist of come-along would be more to your liking.

Charlie and Mark,
Should we tell CQ about Weasels? Actually I seem to remember he already knows of the place!!

Yes and when he was picking up his boat is when I think his GPS took him out to Weasels!!

Mark,
How is it that you have avoided that place for all these years?
The Mod, now theres a name you don't hear much any more.
I forget, do you put your boats in on Memorial day weekend or do you get up earlier?

If we happen to all sit together at the GL dinner again this year, remind me to tell you all a story!!

No more skating or walking on our lake this year, half the ice has gone out this week, Should be all open water soon!

Brady wrote: Do you still get up to the Three Lakes area?

Just waiting on Pete to do the Group invite, LOL.

Have not been up that way in a few years, it sure is a beautiful part of Wisco.
