  1. Make sure that the City has authority to make rules on use of the lake. In many states, the State is the only entity legally authorized to control use of navigable waters, the water that lies above the land. Developers get around this issue by owning all land around a body of water and putting in rules for the land owners that they must follow. In many states, if you can get legal access to a body of water without trespassing, you can use it as long as you comply with State law. Keep in mind every state is different, so check where you are located.
  2. If you can't track down the Charleston site, Just across the river and NE of Louisville is a private lake in Eminence, KY. I know the owner of the lake, Leon is on this Board and is a really good guy. Also other options around Louisville. Message me if you want details.
  3. Plus one for Tower Bimini. Using poles instead of straps makes a huge difference.
  4. We can go out mid day on a Saturday or Sunday and ski the course pretty much uninterrupted, with an occasional fisherman going through. Surprisingly, most are pretty courteous. Before moving to KY, we skied private lakes in the midwest and comparatively, this site is very good.
  5. We are in the Louisville area having recently moved from midwest. If in town, let me know and we can show you the Taylorsville Lake course. Even though public, the course is in a very protected cove, well maintained with little boat traffic and skis very well. Easy access to public boat ramp only two miles from course.
  6. The live stream is great! Both lakes. Shore and boat views live with commentary. Nicely done.
  7. I hate to tell all of you A type people, as you become old, your reflexes and strength decrease no matter how hard you work. That is why most professional athletes are done at 30. If you can't accept that, you will be in for great disappointment. Learn to adjust expectations as the years tick by.
  8. Thanks for the help. I will send them that way.
  9. I have a friend who is looking for a used Perfect Pass System for a 1999 Sport Nautique. Any referrals would be greatly appreciated.
  10. You could add perfect pass to that boat. If you want timing, magnets would be necessary, but are not necessary to operate the speed control.
  11. So no requirement to ski at Regionals?
  12. I have to admit, I saw that too
  13. Double check the size of your battery box. I found it hard to find the correct dimensional size to fit in the box of my 99 ski nautique.
  14. My biggest concern with the new ZBS system is that it makes every mens division speed 36. If you want to be competitive in your age group, you will have to ski 36 to score with the best. Do we really want to see Mens V and VI skiers trying to ski 36 to keep up with the big dogs?
  15. That looks like a pre '2001' Nautique. Absolutely brutal wakes.
