Did a last minute trip to Skeleton Lake yesterday to visit a buddy at his cottage. Weather was fantastic, lake was in great shape to let the boat stretch her legs, had some fun. My buddy took 2 short cell phone videos....

Had to back out early on the fly by, had the gf with me, she really hates the boat lol.... But the cottage is on an island, so we had to take it!

The drag plate made all the difference. Going to pull the steering apart today I think, hope to free it up a bit!

Did you end up getting that steering taken apart? If you did how did it go?

It was a last minute decision to go, next time I'll make plans. My buddy's cottage is the green one just built on the bigger island of the 2. First time I've been on that lake, I like it, an the launch is half decent lol
