1614.1 | should not be a problem | DONMAC::MACINTYRE | Terminal Angler | Fri Jun 07 1991 13:17 | 8 |
| Kim, I'm not too familar with that area, but in general, most lakes do
not have horsepower restrictions - however it's possible that your area
is an exception to that rule. Additionally, 50hp is not that large by
todays standards. For example, the standard size motor on many of the
tournament bass boats that frequent many of the local small ponds and
lakes is 150hp.
For more info you may want to try the boating notesfile. -donmac

1614.2 | A few in Wor county | LEDS::DCAMPBELL | | Fri Jun 07 1991 14:57 | 7 |

Lake Quinsigamond in Worcester, lake Chauncy in Westboro, lake
Singletary (sp) in Millbury, and Webster lake in Webster are a few
lakes that can handle big boats.

| Webster Lake is also known as:
Lake Chargogagmanchaugagogchabunagungamug
It means: You fish on your side, and I'll fish on my side,
And nobody fishes in the middle.

Thanks for the information. Now that .2 mentioned the
fact that 50hp is somewhat small, I'm wondering if I
was wrong with my original statement... Hmmm.. I'm
going to have to double check...
Thanks again!

1614.5 | the Connecticut river too | SALEM::MAZEROLLE | | Mon Jun 10 1991 11:22 | 4 |
| Hi, you can also use the Connecticut river at the Barton's cove ramp
(right off of route 2) a little past the French King bridge.

In the Fitchburg,Leominster.Westminster area, lake Whalom,Wymans,
Fort Pond,lake Shirley are not restricted by any horsepower limit.You
might want to try them.Also in the Winchendon(sp) area there is lake
Monomonac.

1614.7 | Good lake--no access | MILKWY::MLOEWE | | Tue Jun 11 1991 13:37 | 6 |
| re .6
There's no place to really put in at Wymans, other than across the street from
the Wachussets' Mtn entrance. Then there's no parking.

1614.8 | Access? | HPSTEK::RHUFF | | Tue Jun 11 1991 14:06 | 7 |
| That is a good question too. What kind of ramps do these
lakes have? Some lakes don't have a limit but you can't get on them
either.
I know Whalom in Lunenburg has a great concrete ramp.

1614.9 | Wymans'ramp. | LEVERS::NPARE | | Wed Jun 12 1991 13:07 | 11 |

As .7 mentioned the only public ramp on Wymans is off rt 140 by Mt.
Wachusett's entrance.It's dirt and a bit rough but you can still get in
and out if you're carefull ( I do it with a car).There are other ramps
but you have to know someone to use them.As far as parking you park on
the side of the road,the Westminster police will not bother you unless
you give them reason to.
