Skaneateles access

[qkalaker]

Hello, I have fished Skaneateles in the past using the DEC launch on the west side. I have always understood this is the only access. A friend wants me to drive down to the south end of the lake to launch when we go this spring. My rig is 19 feet long, and I wonder if he has some kind of car top launch in mind. Is there a town or private launch to use? Any help is greatly appreciated.

There's A marina on the west shore with a boat launch you can use with no trouble.

Town launch in Mandana...next to a marina...South of State Boat launch.

That,s where I was talking about Ray,I haven't been there in about 20yrs.

WWIV....I figured that, however, the last I knew it was a town launch and not the marinas launch....thought I would clarify that because the marina thinks otherwise (from what I have heard).

There are 2 launchs @ the south end.they are off RT 41.Turn left in Scott and go to the bottom of the hill.The 1st is a town launch and the 2nd is @ the old motel.We've never launched at either but @ the motel launch,there are boats and pontoons slipped in docks that are the same size as yours.......Zeke & Cyn(Strike 3)
