    Wisconsin Boat Launch Pass

    For Lake Wisconsin we launch at “The Grade” there is no fee there. Lake Michigan I launch at McKinley Marina, $12 for me, I think it might be a few dollars cheaper for you being a Milwaukee resident.

    Wisconsin Boat Launch Pass

    For Pewaukee Lake you can get the Waukesha County season pass. It gives you access to three county park run launches. Pewaukee, Nagawicka, and Nemahbin. Last time I got it I believe it was 75 or 80 bucks, not bad considering a single day is around ten bucks. On Pewaukee though I prefer not...

    Not sure of anything to avoid, other than the restricted area by the dam. Not sure how much running you want to do/ how much fuel you want to burn, but area 5 is a pretty cool cove to hang out in. Area 3 is as well, and where most of us Jetboaters hang out. The North End by Sullivan is a nice...

    California Compliant Yamaha Boats

    AR210 has Tr1’s right? I don’t see how it wouldn’t be Cali compliant. They’re naturally aspirated motors. The only motors I thought there was an issue with were the SHO/SVHO motors in the 192/195’s and now some of the 255’s and 275’s.

    Train Horns for Boats

    I mean, an air compressor would definitely come in handy on a boat, inflating towables and floaties and what not, so a real air horn would only be the logical next step...

    saw this in one of my Powerstroke groups. I drive a 6.4, but found this funny.

    Another audio upgrade thread.....

    I think you’ll want a sub. Not to rattle the shoreline, but to fill in the music. In my little baby 19 footer I kept the stock Clarion m502 head unit and four in boat Polk db651’s. Added a four channel MTX marine amp to drive those, and a two channel MTX amp to drive a Polk DVC 10” sub in a...

    Surfing 250 or 252 setups? Non wake series.

    I don’t think too many 250/2’s have been out on the water that much yet. If it’s anything like the 240/2’s your best friend is going to be weight on the transom to sink the a$$(listed to the surf side) and a wake wedge (Gantlin) to clean the jet wash. I don’t know if @jcyamaharider has...

    Meet up in Wisconsin

    They do not make snow, no grooming. They average something like 275 inches up on the Keewenaw. Totals are down a bit this year, so it was tracked out a bit more than usual, but still a blast.

    I was just up in the 906 last week. Snowboarding at Mt. Bohemia. Gorgeous up there in the winter!

    When do you start getting excited for the upcoming season??

    I’m still holding out for a few more snowboard trips, then usually mid April I’m starting to think about bringing the boat home and getting it ready.

    Meet up in Wisconsin

    The Mississippi River is broken up into pools, between dams, usually about 30 miles apart. La Crosse is in Pool 8, I spend most of my time on 9, just south of Genoa, and Prarie Du Chein is pool 10. My St. Louis friends like @jcyamaharider @mattschepker and the gang are way down on pool 26.
