we just returned from an overnite trip to fairview/riverside sp in madisonville, la (hoiur east of baton rouge) and we towed our boat.
the park is very nice and has ramp access to the tchefuncte river that empties into lake ponchartrain. the park has a nice pine woods area for rvs, and a less treed area by boat ramp for those more interested in the water.
after riding the boat saturday and walking thru town, we went back to the park, put the dogs in the rv, and re-crossed the river for a late afternoon supper at a riverside restaurant just across the river in madisonville. sunday morning we foolishly tried to run several miles across the north edge of the lake to eat at a nice breakfast place in mandeville. bad call! the light winds were from the south, bur across a 24 mile fetch of lake, this creats a chop the a little 16 ft bass boat w/ 40 hp outboard should not be in. we made it to the seawall at mandeville, but turned right around and got back to the safety of the calm river. me and the dogs were nervous, while martha looked upon it as an adventure.
the trail lite is doing fine. backing a boat is extremely hard w/ only mirrors. i was not much help w/ the walkie-talkie, either. we ended up w/ me rolling the boat trailer at the foot of the ramp and backing the rv up to it to connect and back into and pull out of the water. O.K. for short ramps and not too busy a place.
