Are there any dates set for the Alex Bay area, there was a great Thunder on the bay up there last year. I got a few good pic's am going to shoot with much faster film this year. If anyone has any good stuff going on it that area late July or early August please post I will be up that way.

EM will you be in the islands this weekend ? I will probably be on the water Saturday afternoon, and maybe Sunday.

Hi I boat in Peconic bay and trailer some. I want to drag my 16 up to my buddies place he has his very own island in Blind Bay which is next to Alex Bay. I am one of those guys that sell holes in the water for people to throw money in. I have been consiring with Scott our Harbor Master to work up a cheap plan to get members boat that are for sale up on my commercial sites. Watch for his post, ball is now in his court. I am planing on getting up to the St. Lawrence in August I will try to set a date from the feed back I get on events and who is going to be around. Wondering how long it takes by water to Kingston!

EM just checked the map and my memory! Was in Kingston last year, beat our selves up a bit in my buddies Regal bow rider. Nice town, melted my plastic in the shops. Want to go back to the magic shop had some great stuff you can't find down here. I will look you up but possibly by land. By the way do you keep your boat in that marina that looks like a fort? I did see a few real nice boats there.

MOP if you cross over to the Canadian channel at Abay, and run up our side of the river, you'll find the water less rough. It will take you about an hour or so.
FYI - the US channel is the main shipping seaway to Lake Ontario, the Canadian channel runs in amongst the islands, so it is more river like.

Hi thats the way we went last time, we went through the very narrow cut where us and Canada are the closest. Really a beautiful area, when we are up there we boat all over and do the jet ski thing way up the back rivers. Everyone one should try to make it up that way at least one in thier life. I go to Bolt Castle every time I go up to see the continuing reatoration. And the old boat work shops, museums. And of course the crystal clear water.
