[PSUBS-MAILIST] Depth Test

Scott,
I live in Windermere BC, 5hr from Slocan lake.  Google Slocan lake BC and you can see the awsome lake and it is crystal clear.

 Scott,
 You would be well advised to drive how ever far it takes to
 have ideal conditions. I have lots of experience doing these
 deep tests and have returned home empty handed. 
 Believe me, it can go bad in a hurry.  Just bring it up
 to Canada, Slocan lake is 970 feet deep 500 yards off
 shore.  I will help you.
 We can use my barge.

  Jim, I am
  thinking maybe what I should do is bite the bullet and
 drive
  to lake Seneca, NY. Being able to test right off the boat
  ramp is pretty desireable. The fastest I can tow is 4 mph,
  but that is in calm circumstances. If it is wavy like the
  ocean, or great lakes can be, that would be very rought
  several hour tow. Unless someone has a working class boat
  with a crane they would loan me?
  Hehe.Thanks,Scott Waters

   Holy
   cow! 21 miles of towing? Might have to find a plan B.
 Why
   can't Kansas have a deep clear lake?

   Hi Scott,
   I'm about  18 miles inland at
   Manitowoc and can offer a place to stay as well as a
 well
   equiped shop. I am planning to test mine soon also!
 Just
  had
   it out last weekend for a bit. Manitowoc has an
  exceptional

   ramp for launching etc. The bad news is that it is
 about
  21
   miles out to get to 450 feet of depth.

   Thanks
   Chris,
   Looks like I would have to go to the upper lake to
   avoid having to go out to the center. I might be
 better
   going Fremont Lake, WY. That is a 12 hour drive for
 me. I
   think I would be a little more protected from the

   elements

   Thanks,
   Scott Waters

   Scott, check out the bathymetry of the lake
   to see where you can test it to 450'

   http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/image/michiganlarge.jpg

   I'm in the Chicago area, but don't have any
   contacts. I can help with support if needed.

   Scott, If you go to Lake Michigan let me know. 
 I am
   close enough I could be support or whatever. You
 should
  hear
   back from others as we do have member in that area
 who may

   have contacts/experience.

   After doing some research, I think my best shot
   for a depth test to 450' is lake Michigan. Any
 body
  have
   a contact in that area for help with this test? Lake
   Michigan is about 10 hours away for me and offers
 plenty
  of

   depth, unless someone has another suggestion?

   Thanks,
