    Lake Erie Put In Bay

    Any suggestions on this destination? I will trailer up to sandusky or other points in that area and plan to dock once in PIB. Looking for central hotels/house rentals and dock options that are decent. Any good launch / parking areas on the ohio side, any advice would be good. Going to take a...

    Tire Load (Another One)

    So, After running my (1 year old to me) 76' Starcraft for a year with no issues, I decided to replace the trailer tires before we get out on the road again this year. Apparently 7.0x13 Bias can get a stunned silenced or quite a chuckle out of every tire place I could find. My question is this...

    I finally got Pics, So I'll Finally say Hello
