I'd be up for that, if I have a running ski.

I've heard the water is really dirty and will stain your hull. Is this true?

Its awesome to ride up there. I dont think the water stains the hulls.. unless ya leave it in forever..

Hey I've ridden on Lake Erie, cut me some slack!

My friend's brother-in-law goes to Hardy Dam all the time with his boat and he says it stains his hull. I've never been there myself.

I ride at Hardy Dam every weekend. I camp at Big Bend Park and can be found at Consumers Beach every saturday. Anyone want to ride there let me know. Its a great place to ride, lots of boat wakes and no the water doesnt stain your hull. lol. Ive been riding there almost every weekend for 2 years. If I happen to stay in town or during the week, I ride where the pit pass 06 was held a few weeks ago, although I happened to missed that ride. FYI, DNR just put in a self pay post at the S. Cedar gravel pits.

WTF???

[White99z]

WTF???

I think our annual passes we got at Green Lake work though. Thats pretty gay. Its not even a real boat launch. All it is is a gravel parking lot that the water comes up to.
