It's all good, just family vacation a few times a year when I bring my boat to their lake when it's anoying.
Day to day at our lake I anchor in 50ft of water and everyone swims off the boat no problem but it's a deep lake and we don't have any beaches.

Not worth the risk. Boat draft is suppose to be 27inches, but depending on load, conditions, hidden rock, tree stump, etc. New prop. At least $600 + time and effort to get repaired or replaced. Just not worth the risk.

Anything under 3 feet is a “No Go Zone”. I value my investment more than I value the thoughts of other people. And I’m sure they wouldn’t want to foot the bill on repairs!!! Your boat. Your decision where it goes.

Most of our local Ramps are 3 feet deep, works for a 28”draft but I would think a centurion might struggle.

I did exactly this on Sunday. My extended lake crew (the other boats in the crew) are starting to get the picture though. Only get on Korey's boat if you want to moving ALL DAY LONG and come back at dark:30. I've found that if we go tie up with someone it sucks the day away...

Yessir. I'm on the lake for watersports. Surfing wakeboarding and tubing are the name of the game. We chill a bit but I prefer to use as much gas as possible :)
