BSS,
Ignore the Trolls and send me a PM. I have plenty of suggestions for you as for free places to park and launch as well as great cheap and friendly places to stay.
Nowhere in your post did you mention what kind of boats you and your friends have? I'd be curious as to what you have. I never assumed you had a Speed Boat. If you do you are still welcome, some people around here think everything revolves around their agenda. Most of us welcome EVERYONE. I look forward to recommending and assisting with your trip. Please come and spend $$$$ in and around this GREAT lake.
