I was really thinking about a drysuit but they are so expensive. I guess it comes down to either me paying someone to do it or get the drysuit it might pay for itself in 3-4 years

Tips for putting in a wooden dock without getting wet?

This is only our second year. Last year, well, it didn't go well. :laugh: As we all know the water is very cold still so even with a wetsuit it's not very comfortable and still limits the time you...

As I've never driven with a 22' boat behind a vehicle nor have I tried to launch said boat that's not something I'd want to try. :-) My luck someone would record it and I'd be on America's Funniest...

Rules for renovations on waterfront in NH

I always thought (maybe because Maines has these restrictions) that build/renovating close to the water (<250ft) was basically not possible. Maine has the 30% rule which means that the house can only...

Are there signs I should look for too while we're out on the lake? Like whips and lifts probably means that this area gets pretty choppy. Same with breakwaters, what are the others?

Any maps or way to tell boat traffic around the lake?

As we look at properties it would be nice to know what the boat traffic is like. With all this talk to large boats/wakes it might be better to get a place with more wind but less boat traffic.

Thanks! We're leaning towards a used <$15k 21-22ft boat to get us started. We'll use it for a year and see how well it works and probably upgrade/change things up after that. I guess it does matter...
