Does anyone know if the marina is re-opened to boats over 24' yet? Last couple times we were out it was closed to boats over 24' because the water level was so low.

I do. I've never really had a problem with them. They tried to test me one time and once they realized my exhaust was under water they told me to have a nice day. Its a little hectic there on the busy weekends though so when that happens I go down to Cattail. I refuse to launch at windsor.

I go there when I'm expecting lots of wind. Windsor is a bitch when the wind is blowing, and there's pontoons sideways at the launch ramp.

We were going to the Marina at the beginning of last year because it is the nicest ramp in town. They tested us once and weren't too bad and said it would be logged so we never had to be tested again. Next time we go then they say that it's not on the books and we have to be tested again. To make a long story short we had to wait for them to screw around for about a half hour and they were being jerks about it and the baby is crying and so on. We even talked to the guy that tested the week before and he remembered but wouldn't do anything about it. They at least wrote on the back of the pass this time and signed it just in case. I'll never give them the chance. 100 bucks buys an annual pass for the state parks. We usually go to Windsor because it is very close to the house and the Rangers are nice and we launch and retrieve always before the crowds and don't park on the ends so we never have a problem. On holidays or extra crazy times we will just go to Cattail as we stay on that end of the lake anyway. It is great down there. The Rangers are the coolest, the ramp is nice, they give you rides on the golf cart from the ramp to the parking lot. F the Marina.

We launch at Windsor all the time and never had a problem except idiots that float out in the water close to the launch area.

yea..the ones with big green bumpers on them :p
they usually hang sideways across 3-5 of the loading ramps, while waiting for their trailer to pick them up, never understand why their trailer is 6 cars back in line and not moving :hammerhea :mad:

I always hate coming into Windsor when the weekend rental boaters are coming back in the rental pontoons at ramming speed!!! When I see them in the area I just hang out for a while longer and let them get the fook off the water.

Your right, I haven't figured out how to do the pontoon boat slalom, when the pontoon boats don't even know where there going. :rollside:

It is not the toon boats (they stay out of the way).
Problem People
1.People who get their boats ready in the ramp area!!!!!!!!!!!!
2.People launch and then hang out in the area instead of moving out and making room!!!!!!!!!

The only reason I said "Toons" was because of the rental people that aren't boat wise.

Phebus I have more understanding for the rental boat driver (first time) than the show off guy taking 10 minutes to prep the boat in launch ramp lane and then hangs out 25 ft from the ramp. I wish they would put a sign up that says area must be kept clear for loading and unloading only.
You can really tell people who have it down. It takes about a total of 3 minutes to make the turn, unclip and back down and off to the parking area.

I do not know (slips are real touchy with this guy) but I would not spend a penny with this guy. He reminds me of a guy down in Parker Strip who thinks he can do anything we wants. I will take my $$ else where with a smile even if it is a little more work.

The good side of Windsor is that 99.9% of the people know what they are doing and help others in trouble.
