Hello...
 

I finally got around to signing up on the forums!

Been summer residents for 25 years (Paugus Bay, and now Black Cat).

Hard to belive I have a picture on my phone I took one year ago this week, no ice...house was clear of snow...not THIS year!

We have a Crownline bowrider at the lake. Dad owns a slip at Channel Marine. We are also ocean boaters, with a Sea Ray on the Mystic River.

If I ever win the lottery, there will be a sea-plane parked at our dock :D

Hope to learn some good stuff and hope to offer some of my knowledge/experiences of the lake! Great Site!

Welcome to this great forum. I recently joined and have found people are very informative, funny and generous.

Welcome Aboard!
 

Welcome aboard, CrownRay! You've just found the most wonderful place to make friends, share info, and just plain have fun! :D

Welcome
 

CrownRay, glad you have joined us. Have fun and enjoy the Winni Forum and good luck in hitting the lottery and getting your sea plane tied up to your dock.. http://i54.tinypic.com/2e56yqf.gif

Welcome To The Wonderful World Of Winn.com!!!
 

This is the most informative, generous, and all-around groovy bunch of people you could ever hope to meet!!!

Have a great day!!!

LOL...I didn't even have to read your post and knew you had a Crownline and a Sea Ray.....Two good choices BTW.
I had a 27 foot Sea Ray. It sank at the dock due to a faulty sea water recirculator on the cooling system on one of the engines. Hmmm if I put all mine together I would be
RaySkiWellmula.:laugh:

Hey, welcome to the forum....as mentioned, great folk. Always something interesting in one of the many forums.
Problem is you can spend all day on here and not get anything else done.....But then there is probably an App for that.:D

Welcome
 

And enjoy the forum.

I figured someone would eventually chime-in on my username :laugh:

Geez, if I had used all the boats we had ever owned, that would be an interesting one...lets see...

Chris Craft, Century, Windsor Craft......Could get ugly...

Welcome aboard mate
 

You'll love this forum but watch out for troublemakers like me.:laugh:

It sounds like you might be new to Black Cat too? If so, welcome to the island. I hope we get a chance to meet sometime soon. There are several Black Cat Islanders on this forum, probably more than I'm aware of, but it's always nice to see more.

Gatto....
 

Don't you already own a seaplane? I thought thats what the breakwater was for.

No, not quite new to the island...maybe 1999-ish? We moved there from the Weirs area. I love it there...so quiet in the morning. We live closer to the bridge.

if i win the lottery the mini-Mount will be parked at our dock!!!

Welcome to the Forum... begin the chant now melt, melt, melt, melt... PIG

CrownRay 2 questions

I was at Marina Bay for years with my sportfish but never made it up the river past the locks. Is it tough to do? I'm not on the ocean any more except to trailer my 19' CC.

Also, a friend owned a place on Black Cat near the bridge all the way into the first cove heading out into the lake. Built a new place near 109 in Tuftonboro.

Well, the river (Mystic) is not really that exciting. Only goes inland a few miles, and at some points, its shallow. You would be better off floating up the Charles...much more to see..We are about a half-mile from the locks, those are fun! Boat goes up-Boat goes down :)

I know the little cove you speak of. Right after the bridge, comming from the Center Harbor side...Our house is pretty much right at the entrance of that, right by the NO WAKE sign (which nobody seems to notice, by the way) :rolleye1:

Hi CrownRay,
I'm also a Black Cat Islander!! Wont be long before we're strolling around the island. Happy Spring!
