[QUOTE]Originally posted by East Bay 50: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by hidnn.o.s.: [qb] The Nautiques etc have fins on them in the center/middle, those can't be beached. Mine has what's called a KEEL guard, which is an extra pad running down the center for beaching. I only beach where I can see the ground, clear any big rocks or other things and it's never been a problem. Another option, is drop anchor about 30 feet off shore attached to a bungee line. Then back the boat to shore, let anyone off that wants off and attach a long rope of dock line to the back of the boat. Once you're all off, let the bungee line pull the boat back out to the lake, then when it's taught, tie that rope to something on shore like a shore spike. Then when you want back on you just pull the boat to you/shore, everyone gets on and you let the rope go and float back out. That way is generally if you're camping off shore overnight etc. Sounds complicated but both are EASY to do. Always willing to lend a hand if you meet up at a lake I'm going to. I'm no expert and often learn from others or modify what others do to make things easier in my opinion. [/qb][/QUOTE]So basically I would need to buy an anchor buddy right? Sorry for the dumb questions. I'm kinda new to boating thanks for the info :patriot: [/QB][/QUOTE]
