Stallion Motorsports1647545491 Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 yeah, it will be busy, but still a good time. the new hollenback ramp is very nice to put in/pull out of. the guys that own flying pizza have a spot to eat at, but i can't think of the name for it. have fun, it will be warm! tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99ta Posted June 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 yeah i know it will be packed. i will get there kinda early tho. so is there places to pull up and eat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRTurbo04 Posted June 29, 2012 Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 eric go lauche at the main boat launch at the marina.. and if oyu want to eat you can pull up to the marina and go get lunch at there little restuarant ..not it sucks and its expensive. just pack a lunch its not like buckeye with bars houses and resturants... its all about boating there. when you get tired you can find a nice quiet cove or go to the party cove and relax and swim (head north under the bridge its up on the left ) Might come on out in the skis if i can get my butt of the couch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99ta Posted June 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2012 thanks paul. I guess we can just pack stuff. we won't be out too long, just taking some friends out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we can just pack stuff. we won't be out too long, just taking some friends out. personally i think you will have a better time at alum instead of buckeye... you dont feel dirty when getting out of the lake Just come to buckeye and party with us and watch linn teach everyone how to go fast.... Party at buckeye yes... jet ski at buckeye hell no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy crap dude. The marina will be pure mahem this weekend. Launching a ski is soooo much faster at the Cheshire ramp. Often people will waive you ahead of them when they see you just need to drop a ski in. Go very early because by noon the wake-generated waves will beat the crap out of you. We gave up and migrated to Erie last year. If you ever want to hit the big water, let me know. Our marina has transient jet docks and has a private channel that is the closest one to PIB. Plus a bar, pool, real sand beach, etc. I think I get discounts for guests on the transient docks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree with you. I think launching at the new marina ramp is best. The new ramps make it go so quickly. I've been going to alum ever weeknd for the last few weeks launching skis and boats. If u can't get in an out quick Stay at errie then and don't back up my boat ramps here at alum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
