Nice lake, a little confined and twisty for a 28 but the crew there likes to run.

Rob and Scott Gratopp are the owners of Secord Lake Marina and are very nice owners. Rob used to own a home in Punta Gorda, Fl.

Come on up, you'll have good time.

With a boat that size, you'll want to do your racing at the dam.

Corner to corner on the north end of the river, we'll probably out run you.:D

Actually with twin 300s, I'll probably need you to get into the shorter straightaways just to catch up.

Secord is a great place to run. You can bring your Skater and run no problems at all. They love the hot boats at Secord. We go out there almost every Saturday and Sunday morning in the summer and tear is up. All the people drink there coffee in the morning and watch the show when were racing down at the lake. Always getting a thumbs up.

lol thats probably because they were sitting in the middle of the lake when we raced by them at 90 mph. Gotten that with him that day. Oh well they know were out there every weekend morning so they better move.

Lol yeah sure was funny when they flipped us the bird. They were sitting in the middle of the lake fishing and we always race the length of the lake. So one of us would go on one side and the other on the other side. They didn't stay there long after we did that a few times. LMAO good times out there you'll have a good time there for sure.

No problem on average we have 4 to 5 hot boats out there in the mornings. I think there are 14 total hot boats on Secord. Maybe more

I'm not sure if they still do that anymore. I was out of snowmobiling for about 7 years. Kids were to young for me to get out there and use them. Just got another one this year. Not a race sled by no means but gets me back out there and having fun again. I don't ride the river that much mostly go up by Gaylord area and ride on the weekends. I'll go down there this weekend and see if they have a track plowed.
