charlesn Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Should be okay with a 16'er. I've launched 20' bassboats there and don't recall needing 4wd to get out. You do have to back in a little deeper than usual since you can't powerload and dry winching a 3500 lb boat is tough! Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jediangler Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 You should have no problem launching a 16'er at their ramp. It is a "No Gas Motors" lake, but you probably already knew that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babaganoush Posted July 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 thanks for the heads up jedi. i had no idea as ive seen lots of bass boats in there while driving by so i assumed gas motors were allowed. i guess orangeville is out, what about belwood???
