[Rhodes22-list] Smith Mountain Lake

[The Rhodes 22 Email List]

Claytor sounds good as long as I bring my own Happy Hour beverage! We will be at Highland Haven Airstream Park in Copper Hill. Claytor looks like quite a bit shorter drive. 

We won't be bring the boat this May. Maybe we could join you for a sail and lake tour, Rob, if our schedules allow.

The State Park does have slips available, but  I don't think any of them are set aside for transients.  That may change though as they are having problems renting them all out.  Our R22 is there along with Cary's and we're more than welcome to join us.  We could even arrange for you to borrow our boat when we're not using it.  Claytor is a much different lake than SML.  Smaller, less crowded, but still good sailing.  The worse part, though, are no pubs on the lake! - Rob Lowe

>> Smith Mountain Lake is one of my favorite sailing lakes!!  At Lake haven they have the king's point pub.  Plenty of parking, decent private ramp and its a sailor friendly marina.

>> Lake haven is on the north side of the lake, in the deeper blue/clear water at the best sailing, deeper water close to the dam.  Also it has the least expensive slip fees on the lake.  If you go to the pub tell Josie that red headed captain bob sent you and have a hard cider for me!
