[QUOTE="lugoismad, post: 451730, member: 16518"] I booked a cabin on a lake in Ontario, Canada in August for the family. It'll be about 1400 miles round trip. We wanted to take our travel trailer, but it ended up being far cheaper to rent a cabin. I found a 2 bedroom cabin on Echo Lake, which is connected via about 1.5 miles of river and a small lake to the St. Mary's River. It has a private dock and everything. Got it for only $40 a night. I'd have to pay $45 a night for a campsite, I wouldn't be on the water, and I'd get 6 miles to the gallon towing my travel trailer vs. 20mpg towing my boat. Atlantic Salmon should be running, so I'm really hopeful on catching a few. I ordered a new axle and hubs for my boat trailer, the spindles were scarred up pretty bad, and I didn't want to risk a long drive with them that way. For around here it would be fine, but 10 hours of 70mph on the highway? Yeah, no. Does anyone happen to have a checklist for a long trip like this with your boat? Things to check, pack, etc? [/QUOTE]
