Lake Washington Boat Towing

Post by kzoo » Thu Feb 09, 2012 4:23 pm

I've been fortunate never to need a tow, but was curious if any of you guys know of the local boat tows at Lake Washington. I'd like to save it on my cell phone.

I towed a boat across the south end of WAWA when he lost the brand new prop on a brand new engine. Many years ago.

Or you could be on the safe side and have 3 motors on your boat like I have on mine, main motor, 6 HP kicker(trolling)motor and a bow mount trolling motor.

I've got the main outborad and electric bow mount. I don't have room for a kicker. I do have a 6hp for another boat.

Does a paddle count?

It would work but Lake Washington can be a long paddle on a windy day too, I can't imagine myself paddling my boat like from Juanita to south Seattle.
