Not to take over onewht193's post so I started this one. Hopefully this will help him, me and others in future. Next week-Wednesday we are coming down to K-Town for through the weekend as my daughter n her family moved there a couple weeks ago. Bringing the Hurricane deck boat so we all can get on the water. I have the map which I am attaching from a couple years ago, but looking for more info on Watts Bar. I initially thought we'd use the ramp in Kingston as its only 30 min to their house but just plotted it by water at approx 30 miles down to Sand Island. Too long a distance for wife and maybe even the rest of them to cruise. What's a good boat ramp closest to I-40 but to get closer to portion of lake say south of Lou's house as marked on attached map? Also, where are the good/ preferred places one can use shoreline, beach the boat? There is actually remote sandy beach areas right? I thought there was reference to sand and stopping along while out running around during the rally's. Granddaughter is 7.5 and it would be nice to anchor off a beach and get out as opposed to always be anchored in deep water and floating all the time. SIL hasn't been a boater so plan is to get him interested and eventually leave the hurricane there so I can bring the 02 down each time we come and have both on the water. Think I'm may be more excited than the rest, now I will have free lodging for Rally's, they are 5 miles as crow flies from plant and they are only 6 hours from us now so we get to see them a lot more thru the year. Any insight from you locals will be greatly appreciated and looking forward to meeting you all in the future. Or hell if your out this weekend on lake we may be able to run into each other. Thanks ahead for the help.
