The only boat I drive on Winni is a PWC.I use the Bizer chart.You should get one and study it.I have a spare that I leave at my favorite reading "throne" and read it religously even though I feel I know most of the lake very well.I feel there is no better instrument for daytime travel than a lake chart and knowledge of the marker system.But I still can become confused in some areas even understanding the markers.I stop and pull out the chart.Pay special attention to the Witches area off of Governors Island if your boating in this area.The non-navigatable area is much larger and the markers much more spaced than they look on a chart when on the water.Job one...get a Bizer chart right here from the webmaster and help support this website/forum.Happy boating.
