1-No

2-Yes

[J.D.]

Braddocks will be dredged, and new barrier beaches installed by the Army Core of Engineers starting this spring.

 

Word on the street.... the marina off E.Manitou Rd. is to receive major upgrades.  I'm hoping someone else can add some info on the marina, as the docks are taped off, and the office is empty.

Would enjoy docking there for the summer, just worry about lake access all season. Can anyone ease my concerns?

How big is your boat blue water?

I live on Braddocks and keep my 15 docked on the bay. My 22 is at Sandy. The channel can have 18 inches or less at times. If you had to navigate it it two to fours you're going to bottom out.

My boat is 25' so Im thinking this is not the year to dock there?..Hopefully next season will be better conditions there

I agree. Sandy is fantastic and there are a lot of good options for dockage.

Too bad the new break wall design is not going to keep the channel open.  The design is clearly not for boating purposes.
