I also have a legacy 220 and I'm very happy with it. My brother in law has a legacy 240 and he is happy with that. I have 4 to 6 people on a lot with no problems. The only thing I would change is a little more room in the head. We both keep them on 6000 lb Hewitt lifts that we were told were...

UPDATE not as bad as first thought. Short answer is sea weeds. Had the props pulled at the shop and they found that the shaft was wrapped with sea weeds. When turning forward they sort of stayed in place. If I spinned the props backward the weeds started unwrapping and bound up the props...

I was afraid of that. Thanks for the reply.

I was checking things over in prep for the long winter nap and turned my props over by hand. When going in what would be froward, the props turn fairly easy. When I turn them backwards, they turn hard. Is this normal? There is no noise either way and there isn't any end play. Thanks in...

I was afraid that you would say something like that, but back on track. Pakmule. You probably did better than I would have done but I think your statement "It was broken up before someone was hurt and we enjoyed the evening." say's it all.

I just checked my deed again and it say's I own to the low water mark of Lake Champlain. Does that mean I can get my taxes back that I've been payng on the difference? :smt038 I do remember something about the fact that I don't own the water and if somebody can float a boat over my property they...

Thanks guys. I'll check with Rob. Like I said I had to work :smt089 but my wife stopped over. She said she tried to help out and at one time was cooking the burgers but I think her major job was making sure Rob didn't have to much beer left over.

Wow I just noticed that it said I had 13 posts and I had to hurry up with 14. Not that I'm superstitious or anything.

Try this VTSeaRay. You will have to blow it up but it should give you an idea where the state ones are. http://www.vtfishandwildlife.com/library/Reports_and_Documents/fishing/Access_Area_Information/Fishing_Access_Area_map.pdf

So, who made it to Robs for the Aquapalooza? I was going but ended up working storm damange in Alburg and Isle LaMotte. My wife did go by car. Anybody have pictures?

WOW What a great thread! I feel like I know everybody just a little bit better. I think this should be suggested reading for every newbie. I usually just click on New Posts - 24 unless I am searching for something. I'm glad somebody posted. Now my turn. -Gettin*A*Head- After persuading (pleading...

Frank, Another Lake Champlain boater here. I am usually on the lake every nice night after work and every weekend that I can be. I am usually somewhere between St Albans Bay and Rouses Point.

Hi Garth I'm in Vermont also. Where are you located. I'm as far NW as you can go. Doing a little hard water fishing but can't wait for spring!!!!!!

I think the best you will get for free is SEACLEAR http://www.sping.com/seaclear/. When I started to think about a chartplotter I put that on a laptop that was to be thrown away. I had a inexpensive GPS receiver that I hooked up to it and I was good to go. A little large and hard to handle but...
