A Beach in Arizona - 01/29/07 11:49 PM
I've repaired my 1972[?] Hobie 16 to the point where I'm ready to give it a try in the water. Can anyone recommend a good lake with a good beach area within 200 miles of Phoenix? :-) I've looked at Canyon Lake, but the man-made lakes have steep and unforgiving shores, generally.
Alternatively, does anyone launch their H-16 from the trailer, like a "real" boat? I don't have a winch on my trailer, so this seems like it might be hard. Setting up the boat when it's on the trailer seems hard, too... particularly stepping the mast.
