Several posters here seem really down on lake boating as if it isnt
"Real" boating. What a bizarre idea. Lake boating is different and
often better than on salt water, often the scenery is much better. We
learned to sail on Lake Guntersville in Alabama and although there
were never big swells, there were countless beautiful little coves to
anchor in. Yes, one can go offshore in salt water but there's nothing
interesting to see out there, all the interesting stuff is near
shore. Lake Lanier in the GA mountains looks really nice to drive
past and would probably be great for quiet coves. After being in salt
water for awhile, boating on fresh water is infinitely more refreshing.


I like lake boating. I use to boat a bit on some lakes in Connecticut,
and several lakes in Florida. I prefer salt water, though.

defending their morally indefensible positions these days. Finally -
they're going away. It seems an answer to a prayer. Thank you, Lord.
