This is NOT a VFR ride but at least 3 of us attending ride VFRs. This is the National Rally for Wetbikes...the old watercraft from 1978-1992. We get a pretty good turnout (hoping for 35 machines this year). Riding a Wetbike is as close as you can get to riding a motorcycle on the water. They aren't fast (35MPH is typical top speed) but they handle just like a bike.
We will be at Martins Landing from Wednesday to Sunday...Official days areThu-Sun, June 20-23rd. If anyone is in the area and wants to give one a shot, or just take a camping vacation, come join us!
FYI, if you have been to Lake Murray in the past, I bet that it will be much cooler water temps this year than normal. We have had quite a mild, wet spring. Of course there is probalbly a website you can check for current lake temps. Don't think you would need a wet suit, but maybe a shortie...
This will be my 4th year. The water has been quite warm in the past. This is also the latest we have done it...usually it's 1-2 weeks earlier. Hoping the water is warm, sure makes it nice to hang out in!
