Yes, third pic down was me. HAHAHAHA. went into it to slow. I am not that familiar with Houghton Lake but that was just east of the lake on trail 7. There is a small bridge there, but who needs bridges?

oops, that would be west of Houghton Lake, see I told you I was not that familiar with the area

I have yet to waterskip anything, but that's because my sleds all break down before I can do it

I think my XC500 will make a decent skipper this spring...

Yes, if my motor had not siezed two hours later I would've made a few more passes.

jbnskyline

i know it is a dumb question but is that bad for your machine to do water crossing?
