115 miles, or two hours! It's killing me, but it's closer for the kids.

On Carlyle lake in about 1985, it cost me about $1000.00 to slip my 27
ft Chris craft on a nine month lease. their idea of maintenance was to
give you a call, and tell you that your boat was listing. and that was
about it. rub rails in bad shape and slip/dock barrels rusted and
leaking and plank work in need of dire repair.

New owners have changed a lot of that around int he last 10 years, but
I don't slip a boat anymore.

nearest lake is 30 mi. next would be Wabash river at 50, Carlyle lake
at 60, Lake Shelbyville at 70, and Ren Lake at 75-80, Decatur Lake 90
mi.

I usually just go to carlyle. Big lake , some shallow spots but not
bad. Loads of fun.

...........your marina?

about 120 miles, but it is mom's house so my kids and grandkids also
get to visit great grandma and my "marina owner" gives me free room
and board with home cooked meals. She even lets me store my boat and
stuff at the "marina" garage between visits. I do have to take out the
trash and do a few "honey-do" tasks that siblings living near her
haven't already taken care of though.

Less than 10 minutes. PITA marina, though.
