Thats where I plan to launch:-) Thanks again for the info I really appreciate it!

Might have to wait a while for the Ottawa. I hear the river is still running very high and the current is MUCH stronger than normal. I'd be extremely hesitant to take a boat I don't know inside and out on that kind of water, particularly not knowing its reliability in a crunch. Around Treadwell (on Friday) one guy told me his GPS said his drift was around 7km, last year it was around 1 to 2km. Moving 7km/h with the motor dying or not wanting to start on demand could be a serious problem in those kinds of currents. Being on a river is a different animal than a lake. For now I'd suggest hitting some lakes till the Ottawa calms down and you know how your boat handles.

The nearest lakes that I like, would be the Mississippi (though I usually skip it because its so shallow), Silver Lake, Sharbot, White, Calabogie, Rideau lakes, to name a few. Most of them have either free or reasonably priced launching sites that are easy to find.
