Default Boating Cost:NY Erie Canal and Area

Nor would I like to be splashing around in it, however I know many
people that have done so and have lived to tell about it.

I have rowed the lake in racing shells, driven in ski shows, worked on
its clean water committee, supplied pick-up boats for regattas and races
and participated in many events along its shores.

It is a tremendous local asset that has been badly misused. It is a
terrific lake for general boating and cruising. It isn't and most likely
will never be a mecca for water sports.

Good luck and good boating,
Jim

Don't believe everything you read. Much of the "it's safe" information is
paid for.
