Does anyone know of a temporary boat launch kit or idea we can use to navigate the rocks on the shoreline and the 10 ft slope from the lawn to the water?<br />

Since we will be in the Meredith / Gilford side of the lake, I've read about Silver Sands, Paugus Bay, and Governors Island bridge as destination spots.  <br />

For anchoring, what is best?  Two actual anchors on a rope or 2 screw-in style anchors?  I presume the screw in style would work if its a shallow sandbar. <br />
<br />
Appreciate any feedback!</div>
