Default Sailboat shopping on Lake Lanier

There is a place in Buford Ga near Lanier that corries some small
sailboats. But I can't recall the name. It is just north of a dealership
called "Boating Atlanta" on buford hwy.



Wouldn't be Snug Harbor would it? And Buford Hwy, does it run up the
East side of the Lake? or the West side?


It's not Snug harbor, Buford Hwy Runs on the East side of the lake, but
is not on the lake. So these places are not on Lanier, but are pretty
close to it.

I just heard back from my former girlfriend up there who reminded me
of the Marina that has the storage yards I saw. It's Aqualand Marina.
Has quite a few boats in dry storage and has lots of slips as well.
When I was there, the water level was normal. Those slips may be dry
by now I suppose.

Aqualand is a pretty big marina. The Road main to it is McEver. Going
south on McEver just a few miles (going toward Atlanta) it turns into
Peachtree Industrial Blvd. That change is also where Friendship Road
(Traveling West from 985) Turns into Holiday Road. Buford Hwy runs
parallel to Peachtree Industrial about a mile to the east (toward 985)

I would also look down
Holiday Road. Lots of boat dealers (new and used) there.



Okay, thanks

Rick


Have fun. I have not been over by Lanier in some time. I may have to go
and take a look this weekend.
