Open Invitation

[ajholt7]

With boating season getting close here in Kentucky, I want to extend an open invitation to any of my fellow tigeowners. If you are in western Kentucky for any reason and want to take a ride on Kentucky Lake or Lake Barkley just give me a shout. I am always looking for excuses to hit the lakes.

If I'm out that way, I'll take you up on the offer...

[ajholt7]

Come on over.

Will hit you up if I am ever back that way. I grew up on that lake for 11 summers. I know it pretty well. Have done a couple of houseboats in the years past, but havent been there for 4-5 years.

[ajholt7]

You will be welcome. My brother-in-law has a houseboat at Eddy Creek.

I might head down that way with my 20V for a long weekend out of Chicago.
Lake Barkely and Kentucky lake are both lakes I have been on. I like Lake Barkely a little better. Both lakes are nice but a both soft bottom working lakes so the water is murky. My wife is spoiled with crystal clear water but for a long weekend Barkely fits the bill. I can't remember how far it is but I used to make most of that ride in my College days where once a month I had to head to Chicago for Marine Reserve Duty. Those where the days where I totaled my 69 Ford Galaxy and had to use my Street bike to make the commute 12 months a year.

Let me know if you do and we will meet up. That will make the population of 20v's a whole 2 that I know of.

AJ - Kentucky Lake and Lake Barkley are great lakes! My family and I go out there to visit relatives and sail Kentucky Lake!

If I make it out there this summer, I'll give you a ring! Would love to cruise in a Tigé on those lakes!

That sounds great. If you head this way PM me and I will give you my phone number.

Is there a houseboat rental company on either lake?
My brothers live in Lexington and I always thought it would be fun to trailer down there for a week. Need a houseboat or cabin though, I don't want to pull the boat in and out all week.

[ajholt7]

Their are cabins and houseboats. http://www.eddycreek.com/ is a great place for cabins on Lake Barkely. http://www.greenturtlebay.com/ is a good place for houseboats. Their are others but, these are the ones I have dealt with. Check out http://www.kentuckylake.com/boating/rentals.shtml

Thanks! I'll hit ya up if we end up heading down. I always get sketched out on new, unfamiliar lakes. Having a local with knowledge is priceless.

[ajholt7]

Sounds good!

Boating season in Florida is MUCH closer than KY.

Thanks AJ. Might have to take you up on it one of these days. If you or anyone is a bit further east, like in the DC area, come on out to Annapolis!
