I haven't been to Gull Lake to boat. Went to camp there as a kid, how is it for boating?

[quote=canadianskier;839670]We go to most of the local lakes except Chilliwack and Cultus lake. There are some great spots along the Fraser River all the way up to Pitt Lake but we mostly ski in Ladner and Deas Slough.

thanks a bunch PRAM
.it is all original .it could use a freshin up .it looks better in the pic than it is . Doh! mechanically it is solid . it could use a good buff and polish one day tho. I have only owned it for about 9 months and have only had it out twice all is working great. but i"ve been sking on and off for over 20 years now i am teaching my 3 kids .so far they love the boat a little faster than our old Zodiac . Doh! . Quote:
nice pic of the slough , i would never ski at Cultas , the fraser is one of my favourites also just for fun one day we skied under all the bridges . ALex fraser ,Pattullo Bridge ,and Port Mann ,then headed on to pitt. skied by the the floating casino in new west and people thought we where nuts. cheers Jake

We like Gull because we can camp there as well in the Provincial Park and use the launch. The public launch is a zoo on weekends. It's a shallow lake so you have to know where the reefs are. The pic above was taken about 200 yards off shore and I'm standing in the water taking the picture! Once you get away from the south end which is the busiest we usually can find some nice water to ski or board. Because the prevailing wind is typically from the W or NW we usually hang out along the west shore.

Aren't you afraid of hitting a stray floating log or something? Every time I'm in Vancouver and cross one of the bridges there always seems to be something floating down stream. It would be hard to see I would think because the water is pretty murky.
