No one thoinks about Stckton as a watersport lake that's what makes it great. Plus you don't have to compete with the wake of 10 50 foot playboys in the main channel!!!!

I love table rock too.

Hey Smendez.

I live in Belleville, IL. Just across the Muddy Mississippi. One of the most important lake qualities for me is - AS FEW BOATS AS POSSIBLE. Mostly go to Clearwater Lake, near Piedmont, MO. A little south of Farmington. If not there, a short day trip to Rend Lake, near Mt. Vernon, IL.

Hey Caval,
I'm planning a long weekend trip to Rend in early July. I hear it's somewhat shallow. Also choppy with light wind but otherwise beautiful. How do you rate this lake compared to others. Hopeing to find some good skiing and boarding.

Saulo,
The 'Setter has a very nice slalom wake. We too are just recreational skiers and boarders. The boat is blueish green with wakesetter graphics and Monster tower. We were out Sat. but not Sun. (Moms day obligations) Let me know about next weekend and we'll hook up. By the way, buddys 21V is an '01 blue limited.
Later,
Jim

YJim,
There are areas that are quite shallow. You'll want to get a map to make sure you stay out of those places, but some of my best boarding has been done at Rend. There is a highway that runs across the middle of the lake. It's probably about a mile long and it's pretty deep along side. If the winds are coming out of the right direction or are calm, it a PERFECT boarding run! But if it is windy, there are still a couple of sheltered areas you can work in.

We do alot wakeboarding and skiing out at Lake St Louis where we live . Its great during the week (nobody out really ) . Table Rock is awesome lake we go every July 4th and party for a week. I have a 2002 20 I would like to upgrade to the 2004 V but the lake has weird restrictions on weight and length.

Greg:

We'll be in Table Rock Lake from June 26th through July 10th. We are staying in a little mom & pa resort called Lazy Lee's off Highway DD near Kimberling City.

Let me know where can we find you and we can get together and burn some of that $3.00 gas and party.

By the way, what are the restrictions on Lake St. Louis? Would they allow something like a 22V there?

[akdoc]

smendez,
they would not allow a 22v at Lake St. Louis. I think the biggest boat you can have on the lake is 20'.

[Greg Daws]

We stay at a place called Holiday Hideaway I think its off OO in Kimberling city. We get there on July 02 and stay the week. Its about 5 families all with boats. Lets hook up !

As far as LSL its 20.7 and 3000lbs which takes out the possibilty of the new switch I or V series due to the weight. Mastercraft and Malibu fall under (go figure)

Are there any more current tigé owners in the St.Louis and surrounding area, We met saulo last summer, cool guy, guess he forgot about the forum.
