FYI, I am sure everyone knows this but by law it is illegal to cut, dismember, fillet, & skin (skin needs to be left on) many species of fish on the water so that the species & total lengh of the fish cannot be determined. Some species may be gilled & gutted only. This can be seen on pg. 52 of the 2018-19 fresh water fishing Reg. guide.(middle of the pg.)
Ray, JMO but I think Dunkirk is a good/better launch as long as they keep /clean all the goose crap off of it. But the new Buffalo Sm. boat harbor launch is just bad.
A committee of boaters & fishermen tried talking to the state & the designers at the Buffalo Small Boat Harbor & they would not listen or disgust anything . They insisted their design was best & that is what they were using. Well ,That was a waste of millions of $$$. The launch sucks & the parking lot is striped ass backwards!
Good luck to you guys. I hope they don't screw up the launch ramps like they did at the Buffalo Small boat harbor. They are long & not steep enough You have to back trailer & tow vehicle into the water to get boat on & off the trailer. It has to be the worst launch in NY state. They just went back & removed some of the new curbing because a boat & trailer could not make some of the turns without scraping tires & hitting them. Also as long as it is a state park your empire pass should be good. So keep an eye on them & good luck!
That's because people catch them by the hundreds & sell them for profits & then wonder why there aren't many. Good way to wipe out a species, remember the blue pike in lake Erie, all gone now! People said it coulndn't happen.
I believe the bunks should carry the weight of the boat & the boat should barely touch the rollers when loaded. The rollers are more for getting the boat over the cross members of the trailer when coming up the angle of the ramp.
Yamaha 3 hp; 2 cycle; short shaft (18" from the mount to the cavitation plate); tiller steering; self contained gas tank on top; only forward gear must turn engine 180* for reverse. It is used on a 16" aluminum boat & will push it 5-6 mph. It was also used on a canoe. excellent condition. Asking $450, can send pics if interested, PM me, Thanks

2 - travel trailer axles off a 30' travel trailer; with 15" wheels;(needs new tires) electric brakes; leaf springs(4 leafs each); 76" between the brake backing plates. Asking $200 ea. or B/O. PM me if interested, Thanks.
I just started using them this year & like them better than the dipsy's. But I think they need a better way to move the weight around. Too easy to lose screw & lead. jmho.
